If the line $x \cos \alpha + y \sin \alpha = 2 \sqrt{3}$ is a tangent to the ellipse $\frac{x^2}{16} + \frac{y^2}{8} = 1$ and $\alpha$ is an acute angle,then $\alpha = $

The ellipse $E_1: \frac{x^2}{9}+\frac{y^2}{4}=1$ is inscribed in a rectangle $R$ whose sides are parallel to the coordinate axes. Another ellipse $E_2$ passing through the point $(0,4)$ circumscribes the rectangle $R$. The eccentricity of the ellipse $E_2$ is

Let the equations of two ellipses be $E_1: \frac{x^2}{3} + \frac{y^2}{2} = 1$ and $E_2: \frac{x^2}{16} + \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1$. If the product of their eccentricities is $\frac{1}{2}$,then the length of the minor axis of ellipse $E_2$ is

The locus of the feet of the perpendiculars from either focus of the ellipse $(x - y + 1)^2 + (2x + 2y - 6)^2 = 20$ onto any tangent is:

The equation of the ellipse passing through the origin and having foci at $(1, 0)$ and $(3, 0)$ is .....

The centre of a circle $C$ is at the centre of the ellipse $E : \frac{x^2}{a^2} + \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1, a > b$. Let $C$ pass through the foci $F_1$ and $F_2$ of $E$ such that the circle $C$ and the ellipse $E$ intersect at four points. Let $P$ be one of these four points. If the area of the triangle $PF_1F_2$ is $30$ and the length of the major axis of $E$ is $17$,then the distance between the foci of $E$ is:
