An ellipse $\frac{(x-x_0)^2}{a^2} + \frac{(y-y_0)^2}{b^2} = 1$ with $a > b$ is tangent to both the $x$ and $y$ axes and is located in the first quadrant. Let $F_1$ and $F_2$ be the two foci of the ellipse and $O$ be the origin such that $OF_1 < OF_2$. Suppose the triangle $OF_1F_2$ is an isosceles triangle with $\angle OF_1F_2 = 120^{\circ}$. Then the eccentricity of the ellipse is:

If the maximum distance of the normal to the ellipse $\frac{x^2}{4} + \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1$,where $b < 2$,from the origin is $1$,then the eccentricity of the ellipse is:

The product of the perpendicular distances drawn from the points $(3,0)$ and $(-3,0)$ to the tangent of the ellipse $\frac{x^2}{36}+\frac{y^2}{27}=1$ at the point $\left(3, \frac{9}{2}\right)$ is:

If $x+y+n=0, n>0$ is a normal to the ellipse $x^2+3y^2=3$ and $x+my+3=0, m < 0$ is a tangent to the ellipse $x^2+5y^2=5$,then the point of intersection of these two lines satisfies the equation

If the focus of an ellipse is $(-1, -1)$,the equation of its directrix corresponding to this focus is $x + y + 1 = 0$,and its eccentricity is $e = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$,then the length of its major axis is
