Find the (i) leng

Given:

9x² + y² = 36

Divide by 36 to both the sides, we get

…(i)

Since, 4 < 36

So, above equation is of the form,

…(ii)

Comparing eq. (i) and (ii), we get

a² = 36 and b² = 4

⇒ a = √36 and b = √4

⇒ a = 6 and b = 2

(i) To find: Length of major axes

Clearly, a < b, therefore the major axes of the ellipse is along y axes.

∴Length of major axes = 2a

= 2 × 6

= 12 units

(ii) To find: Coordinates of the Vertices

Clearly, a > b

∴ Coordinate of vertices = (0, a) and (0, -a)

= (0, 6) and (0, -6)

(iii) To find: Coordinates of the foci

We know that,

Coordinates of foci = (0, ±c) where c² = a² – b²

So, firstly we find the value of c

c² = a² – b²

= 36 – 4

c² = 32

c = √32 …(I)

∴ Coordinates of foci = (0, ±√32)

(iv) To find: Eccentricity

We know that,

[from (I)]

(v) To find: Length of the Latus Rectum

We know that,
