Find: (i) the co-ordinates of foci.
(ii) the co-ordinates of vertices.
(iii) the length of major axis and minor axis.
(iv) the eccentricity.

Find: (i) the co-ordinates of foci.
(ii) the co-ordinates of vertices.
(iii) the length of major axis and minor axis.
(iv) the eccentricity.
(v) latus rectum of ellipse.
The foci (± 5, 0) are on x-axis.
∴ The equation of ellipse in standard form is ...(i)
Foci are
Length of major axis 2a = 26 a = 13 or
Also,
∴ From (i), equation of ellipse is :
Let e be the eccentricity
∴ c = ae 5 = 13e
