For the ellipse `(x^(2))/(a^(2))+(y^(2))/(b^(2)) =1` and `(x^(2))/(b^(2))+(y^(2))/(a^(2)) =1`A. The foci of each ellipse always lie within the other ellipseB. Their auxiliary circles are the nameC. Their director circles are the sameD. The ellipses encloses the same area

Answer» Correct Answer - B::C::D
Without loss of generality assume `a gt b` Foci of `1^(st)` ellipse are `(+- ae, 0)`
Putting this point in `(x^(2))/(b^(2)) + (y^(2))/(a^(2)) -1`, we get `(a^(2)e^(2))/(b^(2)) -1`
The above quantity may be negative or positive, hence option (a) is not correct
Auxiliary circle for `(x^(2))/(a^(2)) + (y^(2))/(b^(2)) =1` is `x^(2) + y^(2) =a^(2)` for `(x^(2))/(b^(2)) + (y^(2))/(a^(2)) =1` is `x^(2) + y^(2) =a^(2)`
Director circle for `(x^(2))/(b^(2)) +(y^(2))/(a^(2)) =1` is `x^(2)+y^(2) = a^(2) +b^(2)`
`(x^(2))/(b^(2)) +(y^(2))/(a^(2)) =1` is
Area of the ellipse `= pi ab`
