The lengths of major and minor axis of an ellipse are $10$ and $8$ respectively and its major axis along the $y$ - axis. The equation of the ellipse referred to its centre as origin is

  • A

    $\frac{{{x^2}}}{{25}} + \frac{{{y^2}}}{{16}} = 1$

  • B

    $\frac{{{x^2}}}{{16}} + \frac{{{y^2}}}{{25}} = 1$

  • C

    $\frac{{{x^2}}}{{100}} + \frac{{{y^2}}}{{64}} = 1$

  • D

    $\frac{{{x^2}}}{{64}} + \frac{{{y^2}}}{{100}} = 1$
