For some $\theta \in \left(0, \frac{\pi}{2}\right),$ if the eccentricity of the hyperbola $x^{2} - y^{2} \sec^{2} \theta = 10$ is $\sqrt{5}$ times the eccentricity of the ellipse $x^{2} \sec^{2} \theta + y^{2} = 5,$ then the length of the latus rectum of the ellipse is

The ellipse $\frac{x^2}{a^2}+\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1$ $(b>a)$ and the parabola $y^2=4ax$ intersect at right angles. If $e$ is the eccentricity of the ellipse,then $2e^2=$

Through the vertex $O$ of the parabola $y^2 = 4ax$,two chords $OP$ and $OQ$ are drawn,and the circles on $OP$ and $OQ$ as diameters intersect in $R$. If $\theta_1, \theta_2$,and $\phi$ are the angles made with the axis by the tangents at $P$ and $Q$ on the parabola and by $OR$ respectively,then the value of $\cot \theta_1 + \cot \theta_2$ is:
