Let \(\mathrm{A}, \mathrm{A}^{\prime}\) be the end points of major axis, \(\mathrm{S}, \mathrm{S}^{\prime}\) be the foci and \(\mathrm{B}, \mathrm{B}^{\prime}\) be the end points of minor axis of an ellipse \(\mathrm{E}\). If \(\angle \mathrm{BAB}^{\prime}=60^{\circ}\), then \(\angle \mathrm{SBS}^{\prime}=\)

  1. A \(\tan ^{-1}(\sqrt{2})\)
  2. B \(\tan ^{-1}(-2 \sqrt{2})\)
  3. C \(\tan ^{-1}\left(\sqrt{\frac{2}{3}}\right)\)
  4. D \(\tan ^{-1}\left(\sqrt{\frac{3}{2}}\right)\)

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\tan ^{-1}(-2 \sqrt{2})\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\tan 30^{\circ}=\frac{b}{a} \Rightarrow a=\sqrt{3} b\) We have \(c=\sqrt{a^2-b^2}= \pm \sqrt{2} b\) Now, \(\tan \theta=\frac{c}{b}=\frac{ \pm \sqrt{2} b}{b}= \pm \sqrt{2}\),…
