+118680 First I went online to find all the formulas that I need
You can make h=0 and k =0 so it is centred at the origin, I'll use the blue one
a=94 and b=52
Plug those numbers in and you will have your formula.
Plug them into the c formula and you will have c
You should be able to finish it but you can ask questions if you want.
