Let each of the two ellipses $E_1: \frac{x^2}{a^2} + \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1, (a > b)$ and $E_2: \frac{x^2}{A^2} + \frac{y^2}{B^2} = 1, (A < B)$ have eccentricity $\frac{4}{5}$. Let the lengths of the latus recta of $E_1$ and $E_2$ be $\ell_1$ and $\ell_2$, respectively, such that $2\ell_1^2 = 9\ell_2$. If the distance between the foci of $E_1$ is $8$, then the distance between the foci of $E_2$ is:

Let $P$ be any point on the ellipse $\frac{x^2}{a^2} + \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1$. If $S_1$ and $S_2$ are its foci,then the maximum area of $\Delta PS_1S_2$ is (in square units):
