The equation of an ellipse is a mathematical expression that originates from the principles of the Pythagorean theorem. It is usually presented as (x-h)²/a² + (y-k)²/b² = 1. In this formula, the (h,k) represents the center point of the ellipse, 'a' denotes the distance from the center to a vertex, and 'b' stands for the distance from the center to a co-vertex.
