Ellipse X Tree
1. The problem involves interpreting the given description of the shapes: 11 connected squares arranged mainly in a vertical branching grid pattern, and an ellipse with two intersecting diagonal lines forming an "X".
2. Since no explicit math equation or function is described, we focus on describing the elements mathematically:
- The 11 squares can be thought of as nodes in a graph or a flowchart, possibly representing a tree structure.
- The ellipse on the right contains two diagonal intersecting lines, which form an "X" shape. This can be described by the diagonals of the ellipse.
3. The ellipse shape can be described by the standard ellipse equation:
$$\frac{(x-h)^2}{a^2} + \frac{(y-k)^2}{b^2} = 1$$
where $(h,k)$ is the center, and $a$, $b$ are the semi-major and semi-minor axes.
4. The two diagonals forming the "X" inside the ellipse can be thought of as lines crossing at the center $(h,k)$ with slopes $m=\frac{b}{a}$ and $m=-\frac{b}{a}$.
5. Without numerical data, this is the best mathematical formulation of the described figure.
Final answer:
The ellipse with equation $$\frac{(x-h)^2}{a^2} + \frac{(y-k)^2}{b^2} = 1$$ contains two intersecting lines (diagonals) crossing at $(h,k)$ given by $$y-k = \frac{b}{a}(x-h)$$ and $$y-k = -\frac{b}{a}(x-h)$$ representing the "X" inside the ellipse.
The 11 connected squares represent nodes in a branching flowchart/tree with no explicit algebraic formula provided. This summarizes the math behind the described shapes.
