3 Cos Sin Since + 1 + 1

The document describes the steps to find properties of an ellipse given by the equation (x-3)^2/9 + (y+2)^2/25 = 1. It shows that the ellipse has a center of (3,-2), foci of (3,-6) and (3,2), vertices of (3,-7) and (3,3), and a major axis of length 5 along the y-axis.

4.

(a) = 3 cos + 3 , = 5 sin 2


3 +2
3 cos = sin =
3 5

Since 2 + 2 = 1
3 2 +2 2
( ) +( ) =1
3 5

(3)2 (+2)2
+ =1
9 25

(b) From (a),


2
(3)2 ((2))
We got + =1
32 52
From the equation above,

Centre is (3,-2)

= 52 32 = 4
Foci are (3,-2-4) and (3,-2+4)
(3, 6) (3,2)

Vertices are (3,-7) and (3,3)

The number under the y term is larger, so the major axis is along the y-axis.
Therefore, length of major axis is 5.
