Use implicit differentiation in the first one:

u^2 = 4-x^2 => 2u*du/dx = -2x =>-udu = xdx. then the Integral = Integral[(u^4-4u^2)du] integrated from 2 to 0. It gives 64/15.

You can do this algebraically or graphically, and for sure the graphical method is much more efficient and a time saver

Beats me why I did it algebraically in the 4u HSC exam :(

For the ellipse use PS+PS'=2a property-from that u find a and from that u can find e. So the complex numbers with the zs are the coords of the foci of the ellipse- except the ellipse has just been shifted up. U can find b easily from this. U have the ability to do this chousta-draw diagrams as well
