I have splitted your post, because it seems it was posted under the wrong section.
There is no automatic right for an Extended family Member of EEA national to obtain Dependent Visa. They can only be issued with such visa, if in all the circumstances it seems appropriate for the Secretary of State to do so.
Inorder for this discretion to be exercised at all, you will need to show that you were a dependant or member of the household of your brother in the country from which you came, and since your entry into the UK, you have been a dependant or member of your brother's household. You will also need to show that during the relevant time that you were dependant on your brother in the country from which you came, he held an EEA citizenship.
