Detailed Solution

Let P (a cos θ, b sin θ) be a point on the ellipse x2a2+y2b2=1 of eccentricity e. Then, the coordinance of A, A', S and S'are (a,0),(a,0),(ae,0) and (ae,0) respectively. 

  Area of ΔPSS=12a cos θb sin θ1ae01-ae01=abe sinθ

and, Area of APA'=12a cosθb sinθ1a01-a01=ab sinθ

Hence, Area of PSS: Area of APA'=e:1
