Asked by Betelhem
The planet mars travels around the sun in an ellipse whose equation is:
Xsquared/(228)squared + ysquared/(227)squared=1
What is the distance from the sun to the other focus of the ellipse
How close mars gets to the sun
The greatest possible distance between mars and the sun
Xsquared/(228)squared + ysquared/(227)squared=1
What is the distance from the sun to the other focus of the ellipse
How close mars gets to the sun
The greatest possible distance between mars and the sun

a=228
b=227
c^2 = a^2-b^2 = 455
since the sun is at one focus, the distance to the other is 2c
The two foci lie on the major axis, of length 2a.
So you should be able to answer the other two questions.

a=228
b=227
c^2=a^2-b^2=455
√c^2=√455
b=227
c^2=a^2-b^2=455
√c^2=√455
