Define the collections $\{E_1, E_2, E_3, \ldots\}$ of ellipses and $\{R_1, R_2, R_3, \ldots\}$ of rectangles as follows:
$E_1: \frac{x^2}{9} + \frac{y^2}{4} = 1$
$R_1$: rectangle of largest area,with sides parallel to the axes,inscribed in $E_1$;
$E_n$: ellipse $\frac{x^2}{a_n^2} + \frac{y^2}{b_n^2} = 1$ of largest area inscribed in $R_{n-1}, n > 1$;
$R_n$: rectangle of largest area,with sides parallel to the axes,inscribed in $E_n, n > 1$.

If tangents are drawn to the ellipse $x^2+2y^2=2$,then the locus of the mid-points of the intercepts made by those tangents between the coordinate axes is

If the distance between the two foci of an ellipse is equal to its minor axis,then the eccentricity of the ellipse is:

The equation of the tangent to the curve $9x^{2} + 16y^{2} = 144$ which makes equal intercepts with the coordinate axes is:

$S$ and $T$ are the foci of an ellipse and $B$ is the end point of the minor axis. If $\triangle STB$ is an equilateral triangle, the eccentricity of the ellipse is
