for (x^2/a^2) + (y^2/b^2) = 1 ,
may i know how to formula this eqn to get the roots??
thanx

Uhmm, not sure what do you mean by formula this eqn, and get the roots? That's the euqtion of an ellipse. What's the exact question?teng125 said:for (x^2/a^2) + (y^2/b^2) = 1 ,

The general form of this equation is known as the standard form of an ellipse, where (a,b) represents the coordinates of the center of the ellipse and a and b are the lengths of the major and minor axes, respectively.
To determine the center and axes lengths, the equation must be in standard form. The center of the ellipse is given by (h,k) = (0,0) and the lengths of the major and minor axes are determined by a = |a| and b = |b|.
The coefficients a and b represent the lengths of the major and minor axes of the ellipse, respectively. They also determine the shape and orientation of the ellipse.
To graph this equation, plot the center point (h,k) and then use the lengths of the major and minor axes to draw the ellipse. You can also plot additional points to get a better understanding of the shape and orientation of the ellipse.
Yes, this equation can be used to solve real-world problems such as finding the distance between two points on an ellipse or determining the path of a celestial body in orbit.
