On the ellipse $4{x^2} + 9{y^2} = 1$, the points at which the tangents are parallel to the line $8x = 9y$ are
$\left( {\frac{2}{5},\;\frac{1}{5}} \right)$
$\left( { - \frac{2}{5},\;\frac{1}{5}} \right)$
$\left( { \frac{2}{5},\; - \frac{1}{5}} \right)$
$(b)$ and $(c)$ both
The area of the rectangle formed by the perpendiculars from the centre of the standard ellipse to the tangent and normal at its point whose eccentric angle is $\pi /4$ is :
The equation of the ellipse whose vertices are $( \pm 5,\;0)$ and foci are $( \pm 4,\;0)$ is
Let $E$ be the ellipse $\frac{x^2}{16}+\frac{y^2}{9}=1$. For any three distinct points $P, Q$ and $Q^{\prime}$ on $E$, let $M(P, Q)$ be the mid-point of the line segment joining $P$ and $Q$, and $M \left( P , Q ^{\prime}\right)$ be the mid-point of the line segment joining $P$ and $Q ^{\prime}$. Then the maximum possible value of the distance between $M ( P , Q )$ and $M \left( P , Q ^{\prime}\right)$, as $P, Q$ and $Q^{\prime}$ vary on $E$, is. . . . .
The equation of the ellipse whose latus rectum is $8$ and whose eccentricity is $\frac{1}{{\sqrt 2 }}$, referred to the principal axes of coordinates, is
Let $\frac{x^2}{a^2}+\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1, a>b$ be an ellipse, whose eccentricity is $\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$ and the length of the latus rectum is $\sqrt{14}$. Then the square of the eccentricity of $\frac{x^2}{a^2}-\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1$ is :
