When labelling curves, precise values should be used (e.g. 2 rather than 1.41). All working should be shown. 1. Give the equation of the ellipse with centre (4, 4), eccentricity e = 0.5 and one focus at (6, 4). Sketch this ellipse and find and label the foci, directrices, centre and any axis intercepts.
