2. The distance of Jupiter from the sun ranges from 741 million km to 816 million
km. Find the equation of its elliptical orbit where the sun is one of the foci.

3. Two girls are standing in a whispering gallery that is shaped like semi-elliptical
arch. The height of the arch is 30 feet, and the width is 100 feet. How far from
the center of the room should whispering dishes be placed so that the girls can
whisper to each other? (Whispering dishes are places at the foci of an ellipse)

of the arch at the bottom.

3. A radio telescope has a parabolic dish with a diameter of 100 meters. The
collected radio signals are reflected to one collection point, called the "focal"
point, being the focus of the parabola. If the focal length is 45 meters, find the
depth of the dish.
