Questions  

If (1,1) and (6, 1) are the vertices of an ellipse and one of whose foci lies on x - 2y = 2 then the eccentricity of ellipse is

a
35
b
45
c
25
d
15

detailed solution

Correct option is A

Vertices are (−4,1) and (6,1) . ∴ 2a=10Centre is (1, 1). Focus is at distance 'ae' from the centre.∴  Focus (1+5e,1), which lies on x−2y=2∴    1+5e−2=2∴    e=3/5
