Equation of an ellipse

→having center (0,0) , vertex ((\pm a ,0) and covertex (\pm b ,0) and focus (\pm c ,0) is given by:

\frac{x^2}{a^2} + \frac{y^2}{b^2}=1

As definition of an ellipse is that locus of all the points in a plane such that it's  distance from two fixed points called focii  remains constant.

Consider two points (a,0) and (-a,0) on Horizontal axis of an ellipse:

Distance from (a,0) to (c,0) is = a-c = F_{1}

Distance from (-a,0) to (c,0) is = a + c = F_{2}

F_{1} + F_{2} = a -c + a +c

          = a + a

        = 2  a  →(Option A )
