eccentricity (x^2)/(5^2)+(y^2)/(13^2)=1

eccentricity

\frac{12}{13}

Decimal

0.92307 \dots

Solution steps

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

Calculate ellipse properties

\frac{x ^{2}}{5 ^{2}} + \frac{y ^{2}}{1 3 ^{2}} = 1 :

Ellipse with center

(h, k) = (0, 0), b = 13, a = 5

= \frac{1 3 ^{2} - 5 ^{2}}{13}

\frac{1 3 ^{2} - 5 ^{2}}{13} = \frac{12}{13}

= \frac{12}{13}
