Problem 518

 

What is the length of the minor axis of the following graph?

518

 

Solution:-

This is an ellipse with a center at (0, 0), vertices at (-5, 0) and (5, 0), co-vertices at (0, 3) and (0, -3), the major axis has a length of 10 and the minor axis has a length of 6, the foci are (-4, 0) and (4, 0).

 

So the minor axis is 6.
