- An ellipse is the set of all points in the plane for which the ____ of the distances from two fixed points F1 and F2 is constant. The points F1 and F2 are called the ____ of the ellipse.arrow_forwardAnalyze the trace when the surface z = (1/2)x2 + (1/4) y2 is intersected by the indicated planes. Find the coordinates of the focus of the parabola formed when the surface is intersected by the planes given by (a) y = 4 and (b) x = 2.arrow_forwardUse surface sketching (Find symmetry, intercepts, traces, sections and full sketch of object) to sketch the paraboloid x^2/81 + y^2/81 = z/3.arrow_forward
