easy calculation of the area of an ellipse


Consider the unit circle {(x,y)2:x2+y21}. It’s a well known fact that the area of this set is π.

Now consider the following linear transformation (x,y)(u,v)=(ax,by).

The determinantMathworldPlanetmath of the transformation is ab and the transformed circle is:

{(u,v)2:(ua)2+(vb)21} an ellipse of axis (a,b).

Now since the JacobianMathworldPlanetmath of the transformation is constant, the change of variables in integral theorem (http://planetmath.org/ChangeOfVariablesInIntegralOnMathbbRn) allows us to say the area of the transformed set is abtimes the area of the original set.

Thus, the area of an ellipse is πab.
