x^2+y^2=3y

Solution

x^{2} + y^{2} = 3 y

(h, k) = (0, \frac{3}{2}), a = \frac{3}{2}, b = \frac{3}{2}

Solution steps

x^{2} + y^{2} = 3 y

Rewrite

x^{2} + y^{2} = 3 y

in the form of the standard ellipse equation

\frac{( x - 0 ) ^{2}}{( \frac{3}{2} ) ^{2}} + \frac{( y - \frac{3}{2} ) ^{2}}{( \frac{3}{2} ) ^{2}} = 1

Therefore ellipse properties are:

(h, k) = (0, \frac{3}{2}), a = \frac{3}{2}, b = \frac{3}{2}

b > a

therefore

b

is semi-major axis and

a

is semi-minor axis

Ellipse with center (h, k) = (0, \frac{3}{2}), b = \frac{3}{2}, a = \frac{3}{2}

What is x^2+y^2=3y ?
