Here we will see how to get the area of an ellipse using C++. The Ellipse has different parts. These are like below.
| Key-points | Description |
|---|---|
| Center | The center of the ellipse. It is also center of the line segments which links two foci. |
| Major Axis | The longest diameter of an ellipse |
| nmemb | This is the number of elements, each one with a size of size bytes. |
| Minor Axis | The smallest diameter of an ellipse |
| Chord | The line segment which points t |
| Focus | Two points that are pointed in the diagram |
| Lotus Rectum | The lotus rectum is a line passes through the focus and perpendicular to the major axis of an ellipse |
The area of an ellipse is Π𝜋∗𝑎a ∗ b𝑏
Example Code
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
float get_area(float a, float b) {
return 3.1415 * a * b;
}
int main() {
float a, b;
a = 5;
b = 4;
cout << "Area of ellipse: " << get_area(a, b);
}Output
Area of ellipse: 62.83
