Abstract In the article, we present the best possible parameters α1, β1, α2, β2 ∈ ℝ and α3, β3 ∈ [1/2, 1] such that the double inequalities α1C(a,b)+(1−α1)A(a,b)<T3(a,b)<β1C(a,b)+(1−β1)A(a,b),α2C(a,b)+(1−α2)Q(a,b)<T3(a,b)<β2C(a,b)+(1−β2)Q(a,b),C(α3;a,b)<T3(a,b)<C(β3;a,b) $$\begin{array}{} \begin{split} \displaystyle \alpha_{1}C(a, b)+(1-\alpha_{1})A(a, b) & \lt T_{3}(a, b) \lt \beta_{1}C(a, b)+(1-\beta_{1})A(a, b), \\ \alpha_{2}C(a, b)+(1-\alpha_{2})Q(a, b) & \lt T_{3}(a, b) \lt \beta_{2}C(a, b)+(1-\beta_{2})Q(a, b), \\ C(\alpha_{3}; a, b) & \lt T_{3}(a, b) \lt C(\beta_{3}; a, b) \end{split} \end{array}$$ hold for a, b > 0 with a ≠ b, and provide new bounds for the complete elliptic integral of the second kind, where A(a, b) = (a + b)/2 is the arithmetic mean, Q(a,b)=a2+b2/2 $\begin{array}{} \displaystyle Q(a, b)=\sqrt{\left(a^{2}+b^{2}\right)/2} \end{array}$ is the quadratic mean, C(a, b) = (a2 + b2)/(a + b) is the contra-harmonic mean, C(p; a, b) = C[pa + (1 – p)b, pb + (1 – p)a] is the one-parameter contra-harmonic mean and T3(a,b)=(2π∫0π/2a3cos2⁡θ+b3sin2⁡θdθ)2/3 $\begin{array}{} T_{3}(a,b)=\Big(\frac{2}{\pi}\int\limits_{0}^{\pi/2}\sqrt{a^{3}\cos^{2}\theta+b^{3}\sin^{2}\theta}\text{d}\theta\Big)^{2/3} \end{array}$ is the Toader mean of order 3.
