Let OO be the center and let FF be one of the foci of the ellipse 25x2+16y2=40025x^2 +16 y^2 = 400. A second ellipse, lying inside and tangent to the first ellipse, has its foci at OO and FF. What is the length of the minor axis of this second ellipse?
Plain-text mathematical notation (without MathML)
Let O be the center and let F be one of the foci of the ellipse 25x²+16y²=400. A second ellipse, lying inside and tangent to the first ellipse, has its foci at O and F. What is the length of the minor axis of this second ellipse?
Original LaTeX notation
Let $O$ be the center and let $F$ be one of the foci of the ellipse $25x^2 +16 y^2 = 400$. A second ellipse, lying inside and tangent to the first ellipse, has its foci at $O$ and $F$. What is the length of the minor axis of this second ellipse?
