Write an equation of an
ellipse.

3.
Center at the origin and vertex at (0,5) and
co-vertex at (2,0)
Center at the origin and vertex at (0,-6) and
co-vertex at (3,0)
Find an equation of an ellipse centered at
the origin that is 12 units wide and 30 units
high.
Additional Examples:
1. Write an equation in standard form of
an ellipse that has a vertex at (0,-4), a
co-vertex at (3,0) and is centered at
the origin.
2. Find an equations of an ellipse
centered at the origin that is 20 units
wide and 10 units high.
Write the equation of a
translated Ellipse

2.
Write an equation of an ellipse with
center (-3,-2), vertical major axis of
length 8 and minor axis of length 6.
Write an equation of an ellipse with
center (1,-4), horizontal major axis of
length 10, and minor axis of length 4.
Write in Standard Form:
1. 25x²+16y²+150x = 160y-225
2. 2x²+8x+y²+4 = 0
Now you try…Write in
standard form.
1.
4x²+y² - 24x + 6y + 9 = 0
1.
x² + y² - 12x+ 4y = 8
