Q37 / 53 · NTA Abhyas (JEE Main) 2020 · Mathematics · Ellipse

The length of the minor axis of the ellipse 5x-102+5y+152=3x-4y+724 is

  • A
    103 units
  • B
    103 units
  • C
    203 units
  • Correct answer
    D
    53 units

Solution

x-22+y+32=12  3x-4y+752 is an ellipse, whose focus is 2,-3, directix 3x-4y+7=0 and eccentricity is 12
Length of ⊥ from focus to directrix is 3×2-4×-3+75=5
ae-ae=5⇒2a-a2=5⇒a=103
So, length of major axis is 203

and length of minor axis, b=53

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
