The major axis of the eclipse is 12 units long
The given parameters can be represented as:


See attachment for illustration
To solve this question, we make use of the following theorem
The distance between a point and the foci sums up to the major axis
This translates to:

You want to compare the square root of 55 using "mental math". Start off by choosing two perfect squares that you can think of that are close to 55.
If you don't know perfect squares then start with the number 2 and multiply it by itself. 2 times 2 equals 4, so 4 is a perfect square.
Take the number 3, multiply it by itself, and so on. Do this for all the numbers until you find two perfect squares that are close to 55.
The two perfect squares closest to 55 are the square roots of 49 and 64. Find the square root of these numbers.
√49 = 7
√64 = 8
Calculate how far 55 is from 49 and 64. 55 is 6 digits away from 49 and 9 digits away from 64.
This means the square root of 55 will be closer to the square root of 49; 7. Since we know that it will be closer to 7, you can put the less than sign for your answer.
√55 < 7.7
(The actual square root of 55 is ~7.4, so we were correct in determining the answer without using a calculator!)

The question has a missing part and here it the complete question:
Imagine each letter of the word “Mathematical” is written on individual pieces of paper and placed in a bag. Should you pick a random letter from that bag, what is the probability that you pick a vowel?
Answer: 5/12
Step-by-step explanation:
The question asks for the probability of picking a vowel.
From the word 'Mathematical', we have a total of 12 letters and a total of 5 vowels (a,e,a,i,a).
Probability of picking a vowel = Total number of times the event(vowel) occurs/total number of possible outcomes(total letters)
