The area (in sq. units) of the region enclosed by the ellipse \(16 x^2+25 y^2=400\) is:

  1. A \(400 \pi\)
  2. B \(200 \pi\)
  3. C \(40 \pi\)
  4. D \(20 \pi\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(20 \pi\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\frac{16 x^2}{400}+\frac{25 y^2}{400}=1\) \(\frac{x^2}{25}+\frac{y^2}{16}=1\) \(a^2=25 \Rightarrow a=5\) \(b^2=16 \Rightarrow b=4\) \(A=\pi ab = \pi(5)(4)\) \(A=20 \pi\)
