  1. A \(\sqrt{2}\)
  2. B \(\frac{1}{2}\)
  3. C \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\)
  4. D \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\frac{1}{2}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The \(y\)-coordinate of foci is zero \(\therefore\) Major axis is on \(\mathrm{X}\)-axis \[ \therefore \quad \text { ae }=4 \] Let, equation of ellipse be…
