What are the basic characteristics of an ellipse for conic sections

The video tutorial covers the basic characteristics of ellipses, including the major and minor axes, vertices, and foci. It explains the differences between horizontal and vertical ellipses and how to graph them. The tutorial also discusses calculating distances from the center to vertices, co-vertices, and foci, and introduces the formula C^2 = A^2 - B^2 for finding foci.
