I got A as my answer

OpenStudy (rsadhvika):

foci lies on major axis

OpenStudy (rsadhvika):

which is y axis here

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6 @rsadhvika

OpenStudy (rsadhvika):

so you must have foci coordinates as : (0, k) (0, -k)

OpenStudy (ddcamp):

I meant (0,±sqrt(6² - 3²) The foci are always sqrt(a²-b²) away from the center.

OpenStudy (rsadhvika):

use the formula for k = \(\sqrt{a^2-b^2}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So its b then

OpenStudy (rsadhvika):

correct

Thank you
