Find the equation of the ellipse which passes through the points \((-3,1)\) and \((2,-2)\), whose center lies at \((0,0)\) and major axis lies along the \(X\)-axis.

  1. A \(3 x^2+5 y^2=32\)
  2. B \(5 x^2+3 y^2=32\)
  3. C \(5 x^2-3 y^2=32\)
  4. D \(3 x^2+5 y^2=132\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(3 x^2+5 y^2=32\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\therefore\) Centre and major axis of an ellipse are \((0,0)\) and \(X\)-axis respectively. Let \(\frac{x^2}{a^2}+\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1\) be the equation of ellipse. According to question it will pass through \((-3,1)\) and \((2,-2)\)…
