What is minor axis length for ellipse \((\frac{x}{25})^2+(\frac{y}{16})^2\)=1?(a) 5 units(b) 4 units(c) 8 units(d) 10 unitsThis question was addressed to me in an interview for internship.The origin of the question is Conic Sections topic in section Conic Sections of Mathematics – Class 11

Answer»

Right option is (c) 8 units

For EXPLANATION I would say: Comparing the EQUATION with \((\frac{X}{a})^2+(\frac{y}{b})^2\)=1, we get a=5 and b=4.

Minor axis length = 2b = 2*4 = 8 units.
