Conic Sections: Graphing Ellipses Part 1

Conic Sections: Graphing Ellipses Part 1.

In part 2, I graph two harder examples.

hay Patrick please help me for the love of god. How do I find the equation of an ellipse that has centre (0,0) if I'm only given the Foci (+-2,0) and Direcricies X=+-8 ?????
