उत्तर

Let the equation of the ellipse be

`x^2/"a"^2 + y^2/"b"^2` = 1    ...(1)

Then length of major axis = 2a = 10

∴ a = 5

Also, distance between foci = 2ae = 8

∴ 2 × 5 × e = 8

∴ e = `4/5`

∴ b2 = `"a"^2(1 - "e"^2)`

= `5^2 [1 - (4/5)^2]`

= `25(1 - 16/25)`

= 9

∴ from (1), the equation of the required ellipse is `x^2/25 + y^2/9` = 1.
