Vertices Of An Ellipse

In the study of the conic section of the geometry, An ellipse is a plane curve surrounding two focal points, or foci where the set of all locus of points in the plane has their sum of the distances to the two foci is constant. On the ellipse curve, it is…

How Wide Is an Ellipse at a Focus? A latus rectum for an ellipse is a line segment perpendicular to the major axis at a focus, with endpoints on the ellipse, as shown in the figure. Show that the length of a latus rectum is 2b2/a for the ellipse x2a2+y2b2=1a>b
Plywood Ellipse A carpenter wishes to construct an elliptical table top from a 4 ft by 8 ft sheet of plywood. He will trace out the ellipse using the “thumbtack and string” method illustrated in Figures 2 and 3. What length of string should he use, and how far apart should the tacks be located, if the ellipse is to be the largest possible that can be cut out of the plywood sheet?
