उस दीर्घवृत्त का समीकरण ज्ञात कीजिए, जिसके दीर्घ अक्ष की लंबाई $20$ है तथा नाभियाँ $(0,±5)$ हैं।

A

$\frac{x^{2}}{75}+\frac{y^{2}}{100}=1$

B

$\frac{x^{2}}{75}+\frac{y^{2}}{100}=1$

C

$\frac{x^{2}}{75}+\frac{y^{2}}{100}=1$

D

$\frac{x^{2}}{75}+\frac{y^{2}}{100}=1$

Solution

since the foci are on $y-$ axis, the major axis is along the $y-$ axis. So, equation of the cllipse is of the form $\frac{x^{2}}{b^{2}}+\frac{y^{2}}{a^{2}}=1$

Given that

$a=$ semi-major axis $=\frac{20}{2}=10$

and the relation  $c^{2}=a^{2}-b^{2}$ gives

$5^{2}=10^{2}-b^{2} $ i.e., $b^{2}=75$

Therefore, the equation of the ellipse is

$\frac{x^{2}}{75}+\frac{y^{2}}{100}=1$
