I knew all this information, but I was mixing up some of the equations. This helped clear up my confusion. Great video for reviewing conic sections, thanks.

For ellipses, does it work if we assign the “a" value to the “x“ category and the "b“ that relates to the “y“? Or do we have to assign " a" to a greater value and the other value would be “b"?


Basically, what I'm trying to say is can we use the original ellipse formula without changing the placement of “a“ and “b“ depending on the value of the denominator.
