Question

An ellipse is graphed. Which statements about the ellipse are true? Select three options. The center is at (0, 0). The major axis is 4 units long. The vertices are 4 units to the left and right of the center. The foci are units to the left and right of the center on the major axis. The directrices are vertical lines.

Answer 1

3 4 5

Explanation:

Answer 2

The vertices are 4 units to the left and right of the center.

The foci are units to the left and right of the center on the major axis.

The directrices are vertical lines.

Explanation:

The statements 2, 3 and 4 are correct. The ellipse graph shows that the foci are units to the left and vertices are 4 units to the left. The center os the ellipse is not at the origin (0,0) so the statement 1 is not correct. Ellipse is an oval shape with 2 other points known as foci. The foci of the ellipse are at left and right axis marked from the center.
