        If the centre, one of the foci and semi-major axis of an ellipse be (0, 0), (0, 3) and 5, then its equation is

    A)  \[\frac{{{x}^{2}}}{16}+\frac{{{y}^{2}}}{25}=1\]                  

    B)  \[\frac{{{x}^{2}}}{25}+\frac{{{y}^{2}}}{16}=1\]

    C)  \[\frac{{{x}^{2}}}{9}+\frac{{{y}^{2}}}{25}=1\]                     

    D)  None of these

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                    Given, centre (0, 0), focus (0, 3) and\[b=5\] Focus (0, 3) \[\Rightarrow \]                               \[be=3\] \[\Rightarrow \]                               \[e=\frac{3}{5}\] \[\therefore \]                  \[a=b\sqrt{1-{{e}^{2}}}=4\] \[\therefore \]Required equation is                 \[\frac{{{x}^{2}}}{16}+\frac{{{y}^{2}}}{25}=1\]
