eccentricity (x^2)/(36)+(y^2)/(49)=1

eccentricity

\frac{13}{7}

Decimal

0.51507 \dots

Solution steps

= \frac{b ^{2} - a ^{2}}{b}

Calculate ellipse properties

\frac{x ^{2}}{36} + \frac{y ^{2}}{49} = 1 :

Ellipse with center

(h, k) = (0, 0), b = 7, a = 6

= \frac{7 ^{2} - 6 ^{2}}{7}

\frac{7 ^{2} - 6 ^{2}}{7} = \frac{13}{7}

= \frac{13}{7}
