How can you tell if the graph of an equation in the form ax2 plus by2 equals c is a circle or an ellipse?

If a = b then it is a circle; otherwise it is an ellipse.


How do you enter the equation of an ellipse into a graphing calculator?

Since it is not a function, you need to solve of y and you will have TWO equations. A plus and a minus one. FOR EXAMPLE the ellipse x^2/4+y+2/16=1 you could solve it as y^2/16=1-x^2/4 then multiply by 16 y^2=16(1-x^2/4) Now you have y=+ Square root of (16(1-x^2/4)) AND y=-Square root( 16(1-x^2/4)) IF you enter both of those and graph them on the same graph you will have an ellipse.
