What Is The Major Axis For The Equation 1 Type H For Horizontal Or V For Vertical class=

Sagot :

Consider the given equation,

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{x^2}{49}+\frac{y^2}{7}=1 \\ \frac{x^2}{(7)^2}+\frac{y^2}{(\sqrt{7})^2}=1 \end{gathered}[/tex]

This is a standard equation of a horizontal ellipse, whose semi-major axisis given as,

[tex]a=7[/tex]

So the length of major axis will be,

[tex]2a=2(7)=14[/tex]

Thus, the length of major axis of the given equation is 14 units.
