• (-2, 8), (-2, 2)

• (-2, 12), (-2, -2)

• (-9, 5) , (5, 5)

What is the value of a and b for an ellipse with the following vertices and foci
Vertices ( -7, -3), (13, - 3)
foci ( - 5, -3 ) , (11 , -3)

• a = 10 , b = 6

• a = 6 , b = 10

• a = 36 , b = 100

• a = 100 , b = 36

What does (h,k) stand for in the standard circle equation?

• (h,k) is the center of the circle

• (h,k) is a point on the circle.

• (h,k) is a point that we guess and find

• (h,k) is the distance of the circle

In the equation (x-3)²+(y+4)²=121, the radius of the circle is

• 242

• 11

• 121

• 22

What is the equation of a circle with radius 2 and center (3, 4)?

• (x+3)² + (y+4)² = 2

• (x-3)² + (y-4)² = 2

• (x+3)² + (y+4)² = 4

• (x-3)² + (y-4)² = 4

In the equation (x-3)²+(y-2)²=16, the center of the circle is...

• (3,2)

• (-3, -2)

• (-2, -3)

• (2, 3)

• (x - 1)² + (y + 2)² = 2

• (x + 2)² + y² = 4

• x² + (y + 2)² = 4

• x² + (y + 2)² = 2

The major axis is:

• The shorter axis of an ellipse

• The longer axis of an ellipse

• The closest point closest to the Sun

• The farthest point closest to the Sun

What is the center of the given ellipse?

• (h, k) = (4, 3)

• (h, k) = (-4, -3)
