Learn to graph equation of an ellipse with a vertical major axis

The video tutorial explains how to graph an ellipse by identifying its center, major and minor axes, vertices, co-vertices, and foci. It begins with determining the type of ellipse and its general form, followed by calculating the center coordinates and the values of a and b. The tutorial then guides through plotting the ellipse on a graph, marking the vertices and co-vertices, and finally calculating and plotting the foci using the formula for c squared. The process is summarized with a verification of the plotted points.
