((x-2)^2}{12}+\frac{(y+5)^2)/8 =1

\frac{( x - 2 ) ^{2}}{12} + \frac{( y + 5 ) ^{2}}{8} = 1

(h, k) = (2, - 5), a = 23, b = 22

Solution steps

\frac{( x - 2 ) ^{2}}{12} + \frac{( y + 5 ) ^{2}}{8} = 1

Rewrite

\frac{( x - 2 ) ^{2}}{12} + \frac{( y + 5 ) ^{2}}{8} = 1

in the form of the standard ellipse equation

\frac{( x - 2 ) ^{2}}{( 2 3 ) ^{2}} + \frac{( y - ( - 5 ) ) ^{2}}{( 2 2 ) ^{2}} = 1

Therefore ellipse properties are:

(h, k) = (2, - 5), a = 23, b = 22

a > b

therefore

a

is semi-major axis and

b

is semi-minor axis

Ellipse with center (h, k) = (2, - 5), a = 23, b = 22
