3. The major and minor axes of an ellipse are 90 mm and 60 mm respectively. Find the distance between foci.

A

11 mm

B

67 mm

C

104 mm

D

146 mm

Engineering Graphics ? Conic Sections J.E Civil (SD) 2025
Correct Answer : B
Explanation :

For ellipse: distance between foci = 2c where c = ?(a??b?). With a=45, b=30 ? c?33.54, 2c?67 mm.
