Q.

Let E1 and E2 be two ellipses whose centers are at the origin. The major axes of   E1 and E2  lie along the x-axis and the y-axis, respectively. Let S be the circle x2+y12=2. The straight line x+y=3 touches the curves S,  E1 and E2 at P, Q and R, respectively. Suppose that PQ=PR=223. If  e1and  e2are the eccentricities of   E1 and E2   respectively, then the correct expression(s) is (are)

Question Image

The line x+y=3 touches the circle x2+y12=2 at P

P is foot of perpendicular from 0,1 to x+y=3

 P1,2

Since PQ=223=PR  we have Q1+2232,22232

E1:x2a2+y2b2=1 with e12=a2b2a2

 

  a2+b2=9  x+y=3  touches  E1a2m2+b2=c2

Since Q lies on E1, we have 259a2+169b2=1

 a2=5,b2=4

e12=15

 

similarly 

R123,  2+23 lies on x2c2+y2d2=1   c<d

c2+d2=919c2+649d2=1   solvingc2=1,d2=8

hence, e22=78

Verifying the given options, we can see that options (A),(B) are correct.
