Answer 12

so h and k are both 2? since 2,2 is the center

Print it out for you to look up the information later.

Answer 14

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

Answer 15

Look at the MAIN vertices, what is a?

Answer 16

-1?

Answer 17

This is kind of trick, but it works well.
The distance between the 2 Main vertices is 6, right?

Answer 18

yes?

Answer 19

hence a = 6/2 =3

Answer 20

same as b, with the co-vertices.

Answer 21

b=2

Answer 22

Yes, now, plug them in, what do you get?
