Q.

For 0 < θ < π/2, if the eccentricity of the hyperbola x2y2 cosec2 θ=5 is 7 times eccentricity of the ellipse x2cosec2θ+y2=5, then the value of θ is          [2024]

1 π/6  
2 π/3  
3 5π/12  
4 π/4  

Ans.

(2)

Given, x25y25 sin2θ=1

a=5>b=5sinθ

e=1+b2a2=1+sin2θ          ... (i)

Also, x25 sin2θ+y25=1          (Given)

a=5sinθ<b=5

e=1a2b2=1sin2θ          ... (ii)

Given, eqn. (i) =  7 eqn. (ii)

1+sin2θ=71sin2θ

Squaring on both sides.

1+sin2θ=7(1sin2θ)  1+sin2θ=7 7sin2θ

 8 sin2θ=6

sin2θ=68=34  sin θ=32

So, θ=π3.
