Find the coordinates of the foci, the vertices, the length of major axis, the minor axis, the eccentricity and the length of the latus rectum of the ellipse $\frac{x^{2}}{4}+\frac{y^2} {25}=1$.

Statement $-1$ : If two tangents are drawn to an ellipse from a single point and if they are perpendicular to each other, then locus of that point is always a circle 

Statement $-2$ : For an ellipse $\frac{{{x^2}}}{{{a^2}}} + \frac{{{y^2}}}{{{b^2}}} = 1$ , locus of that point from which two perpendicular tangents are drawn, is $x^2 + y^2 = (a + b)^2$ .
