Find the equation for the ellipse that satisfies the given conditions: Ends of major axis $(0,\, \pm \sqrt{5})$ ends of minor axis $(±1,\,0)$
Ends of major axis $(0, \,\pm \sqrt{5}),$ ends of minor axis $(±1,\,0)$
Here, the major axis is along the $y-$ axis.
Therefore, the equation of the ellipse will be of the form $\frac{x^{2}}{b^{2}}+\frac{y^{2}}{a^{2}}=1,$ where a is the semimajor axis.
Accordingly, $a =\sqrt{5}$ and $b=1$
Thus, the equation of the ellipse is $\frac{x^{2}}{1^{2}}+\frac{y^{2}}{(\sqrt{5})^{2}}=1$ or $\frac{x^{2}}{1}+\frac{y^{2}}{5}=1$
Let $\frac{x^2}{a^2}+\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1(b < a)$, be a ellipse with major axis $A B$ and minor axis $C D$. Let $F_1$ and $F_2$ be its two foci, with $A, F_1, F_2, B$ in that order on the segment $A B$. Suppose $\angle F_1 C B=90^{\circ}$. The eccentricity of the ellipse is
If $P$ lies in the first quadrant on the ellipse $\frac{{{x^2}}}{{{a^2}}} + \frac{{{y^2}}}{{{b^2}}} = 1$ (where $a > b$ ), and tangent & normal drawn at $P$ meets major axis at the points $T$ & $N$ respectively, then the value of $\frac{{\left( {\left| {{F_2}N} \right| + \left| {{F_1}N} \right|} \right)\left( {\left| {{F_2}T} \right| - \left| {{F_1}T} \right|} \right)}}{{\left( {\left| {{F_2}N} \right| - \left| {{F_1}N} \right|} \right)\left( {\left| {{F_2}T} \right| + \left| {{F_1}T} \right|} \right)}}$ is equal to (where $F_1$ & $F_2$ are the foci $(ae, 0)$ & $(-ae, 0)$ respectively)
Let $x^2=4 k y, k>0$ be a parabola with vertex $A$. Let $B C$ be its latusrectum. An ellipse with centre on $B C$ touches the parabola at $A$, and cuts $B C$ at points $D$ and $E$ such that $B D=D E=E C(B, D, E, C$ in that order). The eccentricity of the ellipse is
If the variable line $y = kx + 2h$ is tangent to an ellipse $2x^2 + 3y^2 = 6$ , then locus of $P(h, k)$ is a conic $C$ whose eccentricity equals
The equation of the ellipse whose centre is at origin and which passes through the points $(-3, 1)$ and $(2, -2)$ is
