eccentricity (x^2)/(25)+(y^2)/(36)=1

eccentricity

\frac{11}{6}

Decimal

0.55277 \dots

Solution steps

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

Calculate ellipse properties

\frac{x ^{2}}{25} + \frac{y ^{2}}{36} = 1 :

Ellipse with center

(h, k) = (0, 0), b = 6, a = 5

= \frac{6 ^{2} - 5 ^{2}}{6}

\frac{6 ^{2} - 5 ^{2}}{6} = \frac{11}{6}

= \frac{11}{6}
