Equation of an ellipse
→having center (0,0) , vertex (
and covertex
and focus
is given by:

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 = 
Distance from (-a,0) to (c,0) is = a + c = 
a -c + a +c
= a + a
= 2 a →(Option A )
Pythagorean theorem
c2 = a2 + b2
71^2 = 43^2 + b2
5041 = 1849 + b2
3192 = b2
b = 56.5 which is answer choice d
Answer: This triangle is <u>not</u> a right triangle
Step-by-step explanation:
In a right triangle, the hypotenuse(c) is always the longest side and a and b are the shorter sides. Thus, 5^2+9^2=13^2. Simplify this to get 25+81=169, then 106=169. Because 106 does <u>not</u> equal 169, it is not a right triangle.
