Find the area of the region bounded by the ellipse x216+y29=1\frac{x^{2}}{16}+\frac{y^{2}}{9}=1.

Solution

Given: The equation of the ellipse is x216+y29=1\frac{x^{2}}{16}+\frac{y^{2}}{9}=1.
To Find: The area of the region bounded by the ellipse.
Solution: The given equation of the ellipse is x216+y29=1\frac{x^2}{16} + \frac{y^2}{9} = 1. Comparing this with the standard equation of an ellipse x2a2+y2b2=1\frac{x^2}{a^2} + \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1, we get: a2=16  ⟹  a=4a^2 = 16 \implies a = 4 b2=9  ⟹  b=3b^2 = 9 \implies b = 3
The ellipse is symmetrical about both the x-axis and the y-axis. Therefore, the total area of the ellipse is 4 times the area of the region in the first quadrant.
From the equation of the ellipse, we can express yy in terms of xx: y29=1−x216=16−x216\frac{y^2}{9} = 1 - \frac{x^2}{16} = \frac{16 - x^2}{16} y2=916(16−x2)y^2 = \frac{9}{16}(16 - x^2) y=±3416−x2y = \pm \frac{3}{4}\sqrt{16 - x^2}
In the first quadrant, yy is positive, so we take y=3416−x2y = \frac{3}{4}\sqrt{16 - x^2}. The area of the region in the first quadrant is bounded by x=0x=0 and x=a=4x=a=4.
Area of ellipse, A=4×(Area in the first quadrant)A = 4 \times (\text{Area in the first quadrant}) A=4∫04y dxA = 4 \int_{0}^{4} y \, dx A=4∫043416−x2 dxA = 4 \int_{0}^{4} \frac{3}{4}\sqrt{16 - x^2} \, dx A=3∫0442−x2 dxA = 3 \int_{0}^{4} \sqrt{4^2 - x^2} \, dx
We use the standard integral formula: ∫a2−x2 dx=x2a2−x2+a22sin⁡−1xa\int \sqrt{a^2 - x^2} \, dx = \frac{x}{2}\sqrt{a^2 - x^2} + \frac{a^2}{2}\sin^{-1}\frac{x}{a}. Here, a=4a=4. A=3[x216−x2+162sin⁡−1x4]04A = 3 \left[ \frac{x}{2}\sqrt{16 - x^2} + \frac{16}{2}\sin^{-1}\frac{x}{4} \right]_0^4 A=3[x216−x2+8sin⁡−1x4]04A = 3 \left[ \frac{x}{2}\sqrt{16 - x^2} + 8\sin^{-1}\frac{x}{4} \right]_0^4 A=3((4216−42+8sin⁡−144)−(0216−02+8sin⁡−104))A = 3 \left( \left( \frac{4}{2}\sqrt{16 - 4^2} + 8\sin^{-1}\frac{4}{4} \right) - \left( \frac{0}{2}\sqrt{16 - 0^2} + 8\sin^{-1}\frac{0}{4} \right) \right) A=3((20+8sin⁡−1(1))−(0+8sin⁡−1(0)))A = 3 \left( (2\sqrt{0} + 8\sin^{-1}(1)) - (0 + 8\sin^{-1}(0)) \right) A=3((0+8×π2)−(0+0))A = 3 \left( (0 + 8 \times \frac{\pi}{2}) - (0 + 0) \right) A=3(4π)=12πA = 3 (4\pi) = 12\pi
Alternatively, using the direct formula for the area of an ellipse, Area =πab=π(4)(3)=12π= \pi ab = \pi(4)(3) = 12\pi.
Final Answer: The area of the region bounded by the ellipse is 12π12\pi square units.
