Fill in the Blank

As a data records specialist at an aerospace firm, you are tasked with entering standard orbital equations into the tracking database. For a specific elliptical orbit centered at the origin, the semi-major axis aa is 35 AU (a2=1225a^2 = 1225) and the sun is located at a focus distance cc of 15 AU. Based on the documented model where b2=a2βˆ’c2b^2 = a^2 - c^2, the calculated value that replaces b2b^2 in the standard equation x21225+y2b2=1\frac{x^2}{1225} + \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1 is ____.
