(e-shows eccentricity of ellipse)

  1. A \(2 b\left(b e+a \sin ^{-1} e\right)\)
  2. B \(8 b\left(b e+a \sin ^{-1} e\right)\)
  3. C \(b\left(b e+a \sin ^{-1} e\right)\)
  4. D \(4 b\left(b e+a \sin ^{-1} e\right)\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(2 b\left(b e+a \sin ^{-1} e\right)\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(A = 4 \int_{0}^{ae} \frac{b}{a}\sqrt{a^2-x^2} \, dx\) \(A = 4ab \int_{0}^{\sin^{-1}e} \cos^2\theta \, d\theta = 2ab \left[ \theta + \sin\theta \cos\theta \right]_{0}^{\sin^{-1}e}\)
