in the ellipse x2/30 + y2/24 = 1 find the point which is 5 uniits distanced from the minor axis.

\n" ); document.write( "This is an ellipse with horizontal major axis.
\n" ); document.write( "Minor axis is on the y-axis.
\n" ); document.write( "At 5 units from the minor axis, x=5 or x=-5
\n" ); document.write( "solving for y:
