The Earth's orbit around the sun is elliptical. The sun is at one focus (the dot on the right) which is a distance "c" from the ellipse's centre. "a" and "b" are the lengths of the semi-major and semi minor ellipse axes. (The diagram on the right is definitely NOT to scale - the focus is MUCH closer to the centre of the ellipse.) For lengths "a", "b" and "c" in the diagram, a² = b² + c² and the area of the ellipse is ab 1. (a) Find the lengths of the major and minor axes of the Earth's orbit. a (b) What is the total area enclosed by Earth's elliptical orbit (in square km)?

Answer:

(a) To find the lengths of the major and minor axes of the Earth's orbit, we need to know the values of "a" and "c". However, this information is not provided in the given text. Without these values, we cannot calculate the lengths of the major and minor axes.

(b) Similarly, since the lengths of the major and minor axes are not given, we cannot calculate the total area enclosed by the Earth's elliptical orbit.
