x2/4^2+y2/12^2=1
If R is the horizontal radius and S is the vertical radius, the Cartesian formula for an ellipse is:f(x) = plusminus (S/R)(sqrt(R2-x2))
A rectangle is a possible candidate, as is an ellipse.
If you start with the following equation of an ellipse: x2/4 + y2/9 = c2 and transform the equation to 9x2/36 + 4y2/36 = 36c2 the denominators are the same but the equation is unchanged and so the ellipse remains exactly as it was before.
It is the Cartesian equation of an ellipse.
There are different standard forms for different things. There is a standard form for scientific notation. There is a standard form for the equation of a line, circle, ellipse, hyperbola and so on.

Ellipse formula, centered at the origin, where the vertical axis is the major axis: x2/b2 + y2/a2 = 1, a > b Since the major axis is 8, then a = 4. Since the minor axis is 4, then b = 2. Thus, the equation of the ellipse is: x2/4 + y2/16 = 1.
(x+3)2/36 + (y+2)2/16 = 1
