Solution :
Given the equation of ellipse is \(x^2\over 16\) + \(y^2\over 9\) = 1
Here, a = 4, b = 3, e = \(\sqrt{1-{9\over 16}}\) = \(\sqrt{7\over 4}\)
\(\therefore\) foci is (\(\pm ae\), 0) = (\(\pm\sqrt{7}\), 0)
\(\therefore\) Radius of the circle, r = \(\sqrt{(ae)^2+b^2}\)
r = \(\sqrt{7+9}\) = \(\sqrt{16}\) = 4
Now, equation of the circle is \((x-0)^2 + (y-3)^2\) = 16
\(\therefore\) \(x^2 + y^2 โ 6y โ 7\) = 0
