2, major & minor. (Yes, really!)
Moment of inertia about x-axis for an ellipse is = pi*b^3*a /4. Where b is the distance from the center of the ellipse to the outside tip of the minor axis. a is the distance from the ceneter of the ellipse to the outside tip of the major axis. Moment of inertia about x-axis for an ellipse is = pi*b^3*a /4. Where b is the distance from the center of the ellipse to the outside tip of the minor axis. a is the distance from the ceneter of the ellipse to the outside tip of the major axis.
The length of the major axis of an ellipse is equal to twice the length of the semi-major axis. If the semi-major axis is denoted as "a," then the major axis length is 2a. This axis is the longest diameter of the ellipse, stretching from one end of the ellipse to the other through the center.
The axes of an ellipse are called the major axis and the minor axis. The major axis is the longest diameter of the ellipse, passing through its center and focal points, while the minor axis is the shortest diameter, perpendicular to the major axis. Together, these axes define the shape and orientation of the ellipse.

Yes.
An ellipse has two axes. They are set at right angles to each other at the centre of the ellipse. An ellipse being a 'squashed' circle has a long axis, and a short axis , set at right angles to each other , as above. The long axis is the Major Axis , and the short axis is the Minor axis. Since they both intersect at the their respective centres, the distance from the centre to the point were the major(long) axis touches the ellipse edge, is named the 'semimajor' axis. The semi-minor axis is the other shorter axid from the centre to were it touches the ellipse.

The area of an ellipse with a major axis 20 m and a minor axis 10 m is: 157.1 m2
Ellipse formula, centered at the origin, where the vertical axis is the major axis: x2/b2 + y2/a2 = 1, a > b Since the major axis is 8, then a = 4. Since the minor axis is 4, then b = 2. Thus, the equation of the ellipse is: x2/4 + y2/16 = 1.
The major axis and the minor axis.
An ellipse is the set of each and every point in a place such that the sum of the distance from the foci is constant, Major Axis of the ellipse is the part from side to side the center of ellipse to the larger axis, or the length of that sector. The major diameter is the largest diameter of an ellipse. Below equation is the standard ellipse equation: X2/a + Y2/b = 1, (a > b > 0)
The maximum length of an ellipse is called its major axis. This is the longest diameter of the ellipse, running through its center and the two farthest points on the perimeter. The shorter diameter, perpendicular to the major axis, is known as the minor axis. Together, these axes define the shape and orientation of the ellipse.
