The foci of an ellipse are explored in this video. First, foci are shown as the two points on the central axis such that the sum of the distance from a point on the ellipse and the foci points is the same as the distance from any point...

In this video, Sal defines the vertex and the foci of a hyperbola, and shows how to locate both. By comparing the hyperbola to an ellipse throughout the video, the listener sees the similarities between these two conic sections. This...

This video answers the question, What is an ellipse? It gives a definition of an ellipse, shows the ellipses relation of a plane to a cone, and the names of different parts of the ellipse.

A video lesson exploring the foci of an ellipse. The formula for finding the foci is derived algebraically and then applied to a specific ellipse equation. [13:49]
