Answer:

The standard form of the ellipse is \frac{(x-4)^{2}}{9} + \frac{(y-7)^{2}}{49} = 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

The major axis of the ellipse is located in the y axis, whereas the minor axis is in the x axis. The center of the ellipse is the midpoint of the line segment between vertices, this is:

(h, k) =\frac{1}{2}\cdot V_{1} (x,y) + \frac{1}{2}\cdot V_{2} (x,y) (1)

If we know that V_{1} (x,y) = (4,0) and V_{2}(x,y) = (4, 14), then the coordinates of the center are, respectively:

(h,k) = \frac{1}{2}\cdot (4, 0) + \frac{1}{2}\cdot (4,14)

(h,k) = (2,0) + (2, 7)

(h, k) = (4, 7)

The length of each semiaxis is, respectively:

a = \sqrt{(1 - 4)^{2}+(7-7)^{2}}

a = 3

b = \sqrt{(4-4)^{2}+(0-7)^{2}}

b = 7

The standard equation of the ellipse is described by the following formula:

\frac{(x-h)^{2}}{a^{2}}+ \frac{(y-k)^{2}}{b^{2}} = 1

Where:

h, k - Coordinates of the center of the ellipse.

a, b - Length of the orthogonal semiaxes.

If we know that h = 4, k = 7, a = 3 and b = 7, then the standard form of the ellipse is:

\frac{(x-4)^{2}}{9} + \frac{(y-7)^{2}}{49} = 1
