The Height of the ceiling at the center is 57.6628 feet
In geometry, an ellipse is a two-dimensional shape, that is defined along its axes. An ellipse is formed when a cone is intersected by a plane at an angle with respect to its base.
It has two focal points. The sum of the two distances to the focal point, for all the points in curve, is always constant.
The General form of ellipse is 
According to the question,
Length of whispering gallery is 130 feet
The foci are located 30feet from the center (0,0)
So, 2a = 130
=> a = 130/2
=> a = 65
and c = 30
As we know ,
=> c² = a² - b²
=> (30)² = (65)² - b²
=> 900 = 4225 - b²
=> b² = 4225 - 900
=> b² = 3325
=> b = 57.7 feet
Therefore , the height of the ceiling at the center is 57.6628 feet

Answer:
"There are 30 chairs in 5 rows. How many chairs are in each row?" Would be the correct story problem.
Answer:
30
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem can be done without the Distance Formula (which is a way to find the distance between any two points in the plane).
The attached image shows the points and segments joining them.
PQ = 5 because the points are on the same horizontal line, and you can count spaces between them (or subtract x-coordinates: 4 - (-1) = 5).
PR = 12 because the points are on the same vertical line; count spaces or subtract y-coordinates, 7 - (-5) = 12.
The triangle is a right triangle, so the Pythagorean Theorem can be used to find the length of the hypotenuse.


The perimeter of the triangle is 5 + 12 + 13 = 30
