If origin is the centre, \(X\)-axis is the major axis and \(\sqrt{\frac{2}{5}}\) is the eccentricity of an ellipse which passes through \((-3,1)\), then the equation of that ellipse is

  1. A \(3 x^2+5 y^2=32\)
  2. B \(2 x^2+y^2=19\)
  3. C \(x^2+23 y^2=32\)
  4. D \(x^2+2 y^2=11\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

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

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, the major axis of the ellipse lies on the \(X\)-axis, so it equation is \[ \frac{x^2}{a^2}+\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1 \quad\left(a^2>b^2\right) \] Since, it is passes through \((-3,1)\) \[ \therefore \quad \frac{9}{a^2}+\frac{1}{b^2}=1 \] And also, \(b^2=a^2\left(1-e^2\right)\)…
