If tangents are drawn to the ellipse $x^2 + 2y^2 = 2$ at all points on the ellipse other than its four vertices,then the midpoints of the tangents intercepted between the coordinate axes lie on the curve:

The latus rectum of an ellipse is $10$ and the minor axis is equal to the distance between the foci. The equation of the ellipse is

Let $E_{1}: \frac{x^{2}}{a^{2}}+\frac{y^{2}}{b^{2}}=1, a > b$. Let $E_{2}$ be another ellipse such that it touches the end points of the major axis of $E_{1}$ and the foci of $E_{2}$ are the end points of the minor axis of $E_{1}$. If $E_{1}$ and $E_{2}$ have the same eccentricity $e$,then the value of $e$ is:

If the angle between the straight lines joining the foci and the ends of the minor axis of the ellipse $\frac{x^2}{a^2}+\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1$ is $90^{\circ}$,then its eccentricity is
