Vedclass · Answer

(B) Given that,eccentricity $e = \frac{1}{2}$ and the equation of the directrix is $\frac{a}{e} = 4$. Since $e = \frac{1}{2}$,we have $\frac{a}{1/2} = 4$,which implies $a = 2$. Using the relation $b^2 = a^2(1 - e^2)$,we get: $b^2 = 4(1 - (\frac{1}{2})^2) = 4(1 - \frac{1}{4}) = 4(\frac{3}{4}) = 3$. Therefore,the equation of the ellipse is $\frac{x^2}{a^2} + \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1$. Substituting the values,we get $\frac{x^2}{4} + \frac{y^2}{3} = 1$. Multiplying by $12$,we get $3x^2 + 4y^2 = 12$.

For an ellipse with eccentricity $e = \frac{1}{2}$,the centre is at the origin. If one directrix is $x = 4$,then the equation of the ellipse is
