Chapter 10.1, Problem 59PE
A homeowner wants to make an elliptical rug from a
a. What lengths of the major and minor axes would maximize the area of the new rug?
b. Write an equation of the ellipse with maximum area. Use a
c. To cut the rectangular piece of carpeting, the homeowner needs to know the location of the foci. Then she will insert tacks at the foci, take a piece of string the length of the major axis, and fasten the ends to the tacks. Drawing the string tight, she'll use a piece of chalk to trace the ellipse. At what coordinates should the tacks be located?
Describe the location.
