Let $P$ be a point on the ellipse $\frac{x^2}{9}+\frac{y^2}{4}=1$. Let the line passing through $P$ and parallel to the $y$-axis meet the circle $x^2+y^2=9$ at point $Q$ such that $P$ and $Q$ are on the same side of the $x$-axis. Then,the eccentricity of the locus of the point $R$ on $PQ$ such that $PR:RQ=4:3$ as $P$ moves on the ellipse,is:

If tangents are drawn from the point $(2 + 13 \cos \theta, 3 + 13 \sin \theta)$ to the ellipse $\frac{(x-2)^2}{25} + \frac{(y-3)^2}{144} = 1$,then the angle between them is:
