eccentricity (x^2)/(25)+(y^2)/(64)=1

eccentricity

\frac{39}{8}

Decimal

0.78062 \dots

Solution steps

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

Calculate ellipse properties

\frac{x ^{2}}{25} + \frac{y ^{2}}{64} = 1 :

Ellipse with center

(h, k) = (0, 0), b = 8, a = 5

= \frac{8 ^{2} - 5 ^{2}}{8}

\frac{8 ^{2} - 5 ^{2}}{8} = \frac{39}{8}

= \frac{39}{8}
