posting 5 problems in one post seems more like your looking for answers instead of wanting to understand how to get an answer ....

amistre64 · Answer

make sure the right side there is a 1 by dividing it all by whatever that value is

then you can read the length of the semi axis from under the x and y parts

amistre64 · Answer

$$\frac{x^2}{a^2}+\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1$$

your axis lengths are then just 2a  and 2b
