Q-00052202
If the foci of an ellipse are located at (±c, 0), what relationship holds between a, b, and c?
1
c = a - b
2
c^2 = a^2 + b^2
3
c^2 = a^2 - b^2
4
c = 2a - b
Answer and Solution
Answer
C. c^2 = a^2 - b^2
Solution:
For an ellipse, the relationship is given by c^2 = a^2 - b^2, where 'c' is the distance from the center to the foci, 'a' is the semi-major axis, and 'b' is the semi-minor axis. The other options do not represent correct ellipse properties.
