The area of an ellipse (e) =Ï€ab/4
Let a rep. the length of its major axis = 14cm
Let b rep. the length of its minor axis = ?
Ï€ = 3.142
Area of an ellipse = 132cm²
132 = (π14 × b) ÷ 4
132 = (3.142 × 14b) ÷ 4
3.142 × 14b =132 × 4
b = (1324 × 4) ÷ (3.142 × 14)
= 528/43.988
= 12cm
The length of its minor axis (b) = 12cm
