If distance between the directrices be thrice the distance between the foci, then eccentricity of ellipse is
$1\over2$
$2\over3$
$1\over \sqrt 3 $
$4\over5$
On the ellipse $4{x^2} + 9{y^2} = 1$, the points at which the tangents are parallel to the line $8x = 9y$ are
In a triangle $A B C$ with fixed base $B C$, the vertex $A$ moves such that $\cos B+\cos C=4 \sin ^2 \frac{A}{2} .$ If $a, b$ and $c$ denote the lengths of the sides of the triangle opposite to the angles $A, B$ and $C$, respectively, then
$(A)$ $b+c=4 a$
$(B)$ $b+c=2 a$
$(C)$ locus of point $A$ is an ellipse
$(D)$ locus of point $A$ is a pair of straight lines
The latus rectum of an ellipse is $10$ and the minor axis is equal to the distance between the foci. The equation of the ellipse is
Let $\mathrm{E}$ be an ellipse whose axes are parallel to the co-ordinates axes, having its center at $(3,-4)$, one focus at $(4,-4)$ and one vertex at $(5,-4) .$ If $m x-y=4, m\,>\,0$ is a tangent to the ellipse $\mathrm{E}$, then the value of $5 \mathrm{~m}^{2}$ is equal to $.....$
The area (in sq, units) of the quadrilateral formed by the tangents at the end points of the latera recta to the ellipse $\frac{{{x^2}}}{9} + \frac{{{y^2}}}{5} = 1$ is :
