In General form find the foci, vertices and center of an ellipse

The video tutorial covers the process of solving ellipse equations by completing the square. It begins with a review of ellipse equations and their major axes. The instructor explains how to complete the square to transform the equation into its standard form. The video then demonstrates how to find the center, foci, and vertices of the ellipse, emphasizing the importance of understanding the relationship between the equation's components.
