3x^2-12x+y^2-4y+1=0

3 x^{2} - 12 x + y^{2} - 4 y + 1 = 0

(h, k) = (2, 2), a = 5, b = 15

Solution steps

3 x^{2} - 12 x + y^{2} - 4 y + 1 = 0

Rewrite

3 x^{2} - 12 x + y^{2} - 4 y + 1 = 0

in the form of the standard ellipse equation

\frac{( x - 2 ) ^{2}}{( 5 ) ^{2}} + \frac{( y - 2 ) ^{2}}{( 15 ) ^{2}} = 1

Therefore ellipse properties are:

(h, k) = (2, 2), a = 5, b = 15

b > a

therefore

b

is semi-major axis and

a

is semi-minor axis

Ellipse with center (h, k) = (2, 2), b = 15, a = 5
