Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Notice that we can get from the x-coordinate of A, 1, to the x-coordinte of A', -2, by subtracting 3 from the x-coordinate of A. More formaly:
Similarly, we can get from the y-coordinate of A, 5, to the y-coordinate of A', 3, by subtracting 2 from the y-coordinte of A. More formaly:
Now we now that to get to A' from A, we need to subtract 3 to the x-coordinate of A and subtract 2 to the y-coordinate. Knowing this, we can create the expression to translate any point of the polygon ABCD to create the polygon A'B'C'D':
An ellipse (oval shape) is expressed by the following equation:
where h is the x coordinate of the center and k is the y coordinate of the center. Furthermore, a is the horizontal distance from the center, and b is the vertical distance from the center. Lastly, c is the distance from the center to one of the foci (they are spaced apart equally).
We can find the foci by using
36 - 11 =
Since the k value in this case is 0, the y value of both foci are 0. Also, since h and k are both 0, we know the center of the ellipse is at the origin.
So the foci are (-5, 0) and (5, 0)
