The area (in sq. units) of the region enclosed by the ellipse $16x^2 + 25y^2 = 400$ is
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
The correct answer is Option (4) → $20 π$
Given ellipse
$16x^2+25y^2=400$
Divide by $400$
$\frac{x^2}{25}+\frac{y^2}{16}=1$
Hence $a=5,\;b=4$
Area of ellipse
$=\pi ab$
$=\pi\times5\times4$
$=20\pi$
The area enclosed by the ellipse is $20\pi$ square units.
