Answer:

The center is located at (2, –1).  

The major axis is 8 units long.

The vertices are 4 units above and below the centre.

The foci are √7 units above and below the centre.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume the ellipse looks like the one below.

The properties of a vertical ellipse are

\textbf{Vertical ellipse}\\\dfrac{ (x - h)^{2} }{b^{2}} + \dfrac{(y - k)^{2}}{a^{2}} = 1\begin{cases}\text{Centre} = (h,k)\\\text{Dist. between vertices} = 2a\\\text{Vertices} = (h, k\pm a)\\\text{Dist. between covertices} = 2b\\ \text{Covertices}= (h\pm b, k)\\c = \sqrt{a^{2} - b^{2}}\\\text{Dist. of foci from centre} = c\\\text{Foci} = (h, k\pm c)\\\end{cases}

A. Centre

TRUE. The centre is at (2,-1).

B. Major axis

TRUE

Length of major axis = 3 - (-5) = 3 + 5 = 8

C. Minor axis

False

Length of minor axis = 5 - (-1) = 5 + 1 = 6

D. Vertices

TRUE

Distance between vertices = 8 = 2a

a - 8/2 = 4

Vertices at (h, k ± a) = (2, -1 ± 4)

E. Foci

TRUE

c² = a² - b² = 4² - 3² = 16 - 9 = 7

c = √7

The foci are √7 above and below the centre.

F. Foci

False.

The foci are on a vertical line.

Find the distance between points M and N.<br>M= (3,-2)<br>N= (5,-6)​
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for distance between points is \sqrt{(x.2-x.1)^{2} +(y.2-y.1)^{2}

So when you inserts the coordinates in this formula, it would be \sqrt{(-2-3)^2+(-6-5)^2}

\sqrt{(-5)^2+(-11)^2}

\sqrt{25+121}

\sqrt{146}

=12.08305

Usually, distance is round to whole number. So, it would be 12

What is the area, in square inches, of the isosceles trapezoid below?
Komok [63]
A = 73.84

Explanation-

14.2 - 6.4 = 7.8 (to get the length of the base without the top part)

7.8 • 5.2 = 40.56 (to find the area outside of our subtracted square that has the top part)

6.4 • 5.2 = 33.28 (to find the area of the inner square)

40.56 + 33.28 = 73.84 (adding together both parts to find the total area)

A = 73.84
