Let $P$ be a variable point on the ellipse $x^2 + 3y^2 = 3$. Then the maximum perpendicular distance of $P$ from the line $x - y = 10$ is (in $\sqrt{2}$)

Find the eccentricity of an ellipse,if the length of its latus rectum is $4$ units and the distance between its vertex and the nearest focus is $3/2$ units.

Let $E_1$ and $E_2$ be two ellipses whose centers are at the origin. The major axes of $E_1$ and $E_2$ lie along the $x$-axis and the $y$-axis,respectively. Let $S$ be the circle $x^2+(y-1)^2=2$. The straight line $x+y=3$ touches the curves $S, E_1$ and $E_2$ at $P, Q$ and $R$,respectively. Suppose that $PQ=PR=\frac{2 \sqrt{2}}{3}$. If $e_1$ and $e_2$ are the eccentricities of $E_1$ and $E_2$,respectively,then the correct expression$(s)$ is(are):
$(A) e_1^2+e_2^2=\frac{43}{40}$
$(B) e_1 e_2=\frac{\sqrt{7}}{2 \sqrt{10}}$
$(C) |e_1^2-e_2^2|=\frac{5}{8}$
$(D) e_1 e_2=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}$

Tangents are drawn from points on the circle $x^2 + y^2 = 49$ to the ellipse $\frac{x^2}{25} + \frac{y^2}{24} = 1$. The angle between the tangents is:

If a normal is drawn at a variable point $P(x, y)$ on the curve $9x^2 + 16y^2 = 144$,then the maximum distance from the centre of the curve to the normal is

The distance between the foci of the ellipse $3x^2 + 4y^2 = 48$ is
