If $OB$ is the semi-minor axis of an ellipse, $F_1$ and $F_2$ are its foci and the angle between $F_1B$ and $F_2B$ is a right angle, then the square of the eccentricity of the ellipse is
$\frac{1}{2}$
$\frac{1}{{\sqrt 2 }}$
$\frac{1}{{2\sqrt 2 }}$
$\frac{1}{4}$
If the normal at any point $P$ on the ellipse $\frac{{{x^2}}}{{{a^2}}} + \frac{{{y^2}}}{{{b^2}}} = 1$ meets the co-ordinate axes in $G$ and $g$ respectively, then $PG:Pg = $
Equation of the ellipse with eccentricity $\frac{1}{2}$ and foci at $( \pm 1,\;0)$ is
Which of the following points lies on the locus of the foot of perpendicular drawn upon any tangent to the ellipse, $\frac{x^{2}}{4}+\frac{y^{2}}{2}=1$ from any of its foci?
An ellipse has eccentricity $\frac{1}{2}$ and one focus at the point $P\left( {\frac{1}{2},\;1} \right)$. Its one directrix is the common tangent nearer to the point $P$, to the circle ${x^2} + {y^2} = 1$ and the hyperbola ${x^2} - {y^2} = 1$. The equation of the ellipse in the standard form, is
Let $\frac{x^2}{a^2}+\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1, a>b$ be an ellipse with foci $F_1$ and $F_2$. Let $AO$ be its semi-minor axis, where $O$ is the centre of the ellipse. The lines $A F_1$ and $A F_2$, when extended, cut the ellipse again at points $B$ and $C$ respectively. Suppose that the $\triangle A B C$ is equilateral. Then, the eccentricity of the ellipse is
