Equations of Ellipses (Standard Form) & Graphing Ellipses

Hello! For today's video, I will cover the topic of ellipses. In textbooks and classes, you usually hear about how similar ellipses are to circles but the difference is a the foci or focal points. In this video, I go over the standard form of the equation and the key components of the equation. After explaining ellipses and the formula, I go over 3 different practice problems to test your understanding of ellipses. The 3rd practice problem is the ultimate tester because you really need to understand ellipses well because that problem makes you work backwards. An ugly equation is provided and it's supposed to be the entire factored out form for an ellipses. I don't actually sketch the ellipses but you are given all the required information to sketch one if you need.

Here's the link to my previous video about circles btw if you haven't seen it, you'll be happy to see some similarities between the two.    • Equations of Circles (Standard Form) & Gra...  

Things you'll hear in this video: x-radius, y-radius

Don't forget to watch until the end. The last problem is just... torture but it could be worse... Anyways, let's jump into the video!
