10-2. Parabola, Ellipse, Hyperbola
hard
An ellipse, with foci at $(0, 2)$ and $(0, -2)$ and minor axis of length $4$, passes through which of the following points?
A
$(2, \sqrt 2 )$
B
$(2, 2\sqrt 2 )$
C
$(1, 2\sqrt 2 )$
D
$( \sqrt 2, 2 )$
(JEE MAIN-2019)
Solution
Given $2a = 4$ and $2be = 4$
$ \Rightarrow a = 2,be = 2$
$ \Rightarrow {b^2}{e^2} = 4$
$ \Rightarrow {b^2} – {a^2} = 4$
$ \Rightarrow {b^2} = 8$
$ \Rightarrow $ equation of ellipse
$\frac{{{x^2}}}{4} + \frac{{{y^2}}}{8} = 1$
Clearly option $(D)$ satisfy the given curve.
