+ 
= 1 whose distance from its centre is same and is equal to 
, then eccentricity of ellipse is 
, k must be ………… .
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
0002
Ans. 0002
Sol. The point will lie on major axis or minor axis but as 
> b, so point will lie on major axis.
∴ a = 
⇒ 
= 
∴ e = 
k = 2
