Two foci F 1(-c, 0), F2(c, 0)
The two endpoints of the long axis A 1(-a, 0), A2(a, 0).
Because the point p is on the ellipse, it can be set to P(acost, bsint) and t ∈ r.

Let the two foci of an ellipse be F 1 and F2 respectively, and the distance between them is 2c. The sum of the distances from any point on the ellipse to F 1 and F2 is 2a (2a >: 2c).
Taking the straight line of F 1 and F2 as the X axis and the vertical line of the line segment F 1F2 as the Y axis, and establishing the rectangular coordinate system xOy, the coordinates of F 1 and F2 are (-c, 0) and (c, 0) respectively.
When the focus is on the X axis, the focus coordinate F 1(-c, 0)F2(c, 0).
When the focus is on the Y axis, the focus coordinate F 1(0, -c)F2(0, c).
