Help with ellipses

Answer 1

Find the equation of an ellipse based on the following information: Vertices: (0, ±2), minor axis of length 2.

Answer 2

\[\frac{ (x-h)^2 }{ a^2 } + \frac{ (y-k)^2 }{ b^2 } = 1\]

Answer 3

x = h is how to find the minor axis, but we know minor axis is two so x=2?

Answer 4

I like to draw first.

Answer 5

2/2=1
so that means we are 1 unit way from the center on each side
