  • A
    $e = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$
  • B
    $e = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$
  • C
    $e = \frac{1}{2}$

Given the base of a triangle and the sum of its other two sides,the locus of the center of its incircle is:

The product of the perpendiculars from the two foci of the ellipse $\frac{x^2}{9} + \frac{y^2}{25} = 1$ on the tangent at any point on the ellipse is:

Let the product of the focal distances of the point $\left(\sqrt{3}, \frac{1}{2}\right)$ on the ellipse $\frac{x^2}{a^2} + \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1$ $(a > b)$ be $\frac{7}{4}$. Then the absolute difference of the eccentricities of two such ellipses is

Consider the ellipse $\frac{x^2}{4}+\frac{y^2}{3}=1$. Let $H(\alpha, 0)$,$0 < \alpha < 2$,be a point. $A$ straight line drawn through $H$ parallel to the $y$-axis crosses the ellipse and its auxiliary circle at points $E$ and $F$ respectively,in the first quadrant. The tangent to the ellipse at the point $E$ intersects the positive $x$-axis at a point $G$. Suppose the straight line joining $F$ and the origin makes an angle $\phi$ with the positive $x$-axis.
