Equation of an ellipse

An [b][url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ellipse]ellipse[/url][/b] is a [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plane_curve]plane curve[/url] surrounding two [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Focus_(geometry)]focal points[/url], such that for all points on the curve, the sum of the two distances to the focal points is a constant.[br][url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analytic_geometry]Analytically[/url], the equation of a standard ellipse centered at the origin with width 2[i]a[/i] and height 2[i]b[/i] is:[br][math]\frac{x^2}{a^2}+\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1[/math][br]Elipsa je dána středem S =(m, n) a velikostmi poloos a, b. Vyjádřete elipsu implicitně rovnicí v osovém tvaru a parametricky.
