If the distance between a focus and corresponding directrix of an ellipse be $8$ and the eccentricity be $1/2$, then length of the minor axis is
$3$
$4\sqrt 2 $
$6$
None of these
The ellipse $\frac{{{x^2}}}{{{a^2}}} + \frac{{{y^2}}}{{{b^2}}} = 1$ and the straight line $y = mx + c$ intersect in real points only if
If the points of intersection of two distinct conics $x^2+y^2=4 b$ and $\frac{x^2}{16}+\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1$ lie on the curve $y^2=3 x^2$, then $3 \sqrt{3}$ times the area of the rectangle formed by the intersection points is............................
The locus of the foot of perpendicular drawn from the centre of the ellipse ${x^2} + 3{y^2} = 6$ on any tangent to it is
A chord $PQ$ of the ellipse $\frac{x^2}{9} + \frac{y^2}{4} = 1$ subtends right angle at its centre. The locus of the point of intersection of tangents drawn at $P$ and $Q$ is-
If $P_1$ and $P_2$ are two points on the ellipse $\frac{{{x^2}}}{4} + {y^2} = 1$ at which the tangents are parallel to the chord joining the points $(0, 1)$ and $(2, 0)$, then the distance between $P_1$ and $P_2$ is
