how to calculate the area of a ellipse in matlab

To calculate the area of an ellipse in matlab, you can use the following formula:

Area = pi*a*b

Where a and b are the lengths of the semi-major and semi-minor axes, respectively.

Here's how you can implement this formula in matlab:

main.m
% semi-major and semi-minor axes of the ellipse
a = 4; 
b = 2;

% calculate the area of the ellipse
Area = pi*a*b;

In this example, the area of the ellipse with semi-major axis length a=4 and semi-minor axis length b=2 would be calculated and stored in the variable Area.
