Circles are drawn on chords of the rectangular hyperbola $xy = c^2$ parallel to the line $y = x$ as diameters. All such circles pass through two fixed points whose coordinates are:

The eccentricity of the hyperbola $x^2 - y^2 = 25$ is

The length of the latus rectum of the hyperbola $\frac{x^2}{\cos^2 \alpha} - \frac{y^2}{\sin^2 \alpha} = 4$ is (where $\alpha \neq \frac{n\pi}{2}, n \in I$).
