Number 13. Find equation using eccentricity
Exercises 13-16 give foci and corresponding directrices of ellipses
centered at the origin of the xy-plane. In each case, use the dimensions
in Figure 11.47 to find the eccentricity of the ellipse. Then find the
ellipse's standard-form equation in Cartesian coordinates.
