Find the coordinates of the foci, the vertices, the length of major axis, the minor axis, the eccentricity and the length of the latus rectum of the ellipse $4 x ^{2}+9 y ^{2}=36$
The given equation is $4 x ^{2}+9 y ^{2}=36$
It can be written as
$4 x^{2}+9 y^{2}=36$
Or , $\frac{ x ^{2}}{9}+\frac{y^{2}}{4}=1$
Or, $\frac{x^{2}}{3^{2}}+\frac{y^{2}}{2^{2}}=1$ ......... $(1)$
Here, the denominator of $\frac{ x ^{2}}{3^{2}}$ is greater than the denominator of $\frac{y^{2}}{2^{2}}$
Therefore, the major axis is along the $x-$ axis, while the minor axis is along the $y-$ axis.
On comparing the given equation with $\frac{x^{2}}{b^{2}}+\frac{y^{2}}{a^{2}}=1,$ we obtain $a=3$ and $b=2$
$\therefore c=\sqrt{a^{2}-b^{2}}=\sqrt{9-4}=\sqrt{5}$
Therefore,
The coordinates of the foci are $(\pm \sqrt{5}, \,0)$
The coordinates of the vertices are $(±3,\,0)$
Length of major axis $=2 a=6$
Length of minor axis $=2 b=4$
Eccentricity, $e=\frac{c}{a}=\frac{\sqrt{5}}{3}$
Length of latus rectum $=\frac{2 b^{2}}{a}=\frac{2 \times 4}{3}=\frac{8}{3}$
If the lines $x -2y = 12$ is tangent to the ellipse $\frac{{{x^2}}}{{{a^2}}} + \frac{{{y^2}}}{{{b^2}}} = 1$ at the point $\left( {3,\frac{-9}{2}} \right)$, then the length of the latus rectum of the ellipse is
Eccentricity of the ellipse $4{x^2} + {y^2} - 8x + 2y + 1 = 0$ is
Find the coordinates of the foci, the vertices, the length of major axis, the minor axis, the eccentricity and the length of the latus rectum of the ellipse $\frac{x^{2}}{49}+\frac{y^{2}}{36}=1$
A triangle is formed by the tangents at the point $(2,2)$ on the curves $y^2=2 x$ and $x^2+y^2=4 x$, and the line $x+y+2=0$. If $r$ is the radius of its circumcircle, then $r ^2$ is equal to $........$.
The length of the latus rectum of the ellipse $5{x^2} + 9{y^2} = 45$ is
