    How Do You Calculate the Area of an Ellipse from Pericenter to Pi/2?

    Homework Statement I have an orbital mechanics problem, in which I need to find the area of the ellipse from pericenter to pi/2 (semi-latus rectum location). Homework Equations So I have the orbit equation r = p/(1+e*cos(theta)) where the origin is at the focus. So I know that A...
