The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the eccentricities \( e_1 \) and \( e_2 \) of the given hyperbola and ellipse respectively. ### Step 1: Find the eccentricity of the hyperbola The equation of the hyperbola is given as: \[ 2x^2 - 2y^2 = 1 \] We can rewrite this in standard form by dividing the entire equation by 1: \[ \frac{x^2}{\frac{1}{2}} - \frac{y^2}{\frac{1}{2}} = 1 \] From this, we can identify \( a^2 = \frac{1}{2} \) and \( b^2 = \frac{1}{2} \). The eccentricity \( e_1 \) of a hyperbola is given by the formula: \[ e_1 = \sqrt{1 + \frac{b^2}{a^2}} \] Substituting the values of \( a^2 \) and \( b^2 \): \[ e_1 = \sqrt{1 + \frac{\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{1}{2}}} = \sqrt{1 + 1} = \sqrt{2} \] ### Step 2: Find the eccentricity of the ellipse The equation of the ellipse is given as: \[ x^2 + 2y^2 = 2 \] We can rewrite this in standard form by dividing the entire equation by 2: \[ \frac{x^2}{2} + \frac{y^2}{1} = 1 \] From this, we can identify \( a^2 = 2 \) and \( b^2 = 1 \). The eccentricity \( e_2 \) of an ellipse is given by the formula: \[ e_2 = \sqrt{1 - \frac{b^2}{a^2}} \] Substituting the values of \( a^2 \) and \( b^2 \): \[ e_2 = \sqrt{1 - \frac{1}{2}} = \sqrt{\frac{1}{2}} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \] ### Step 3: Summarize the results Now we have: - \( e_1 = \sqrt{2} \) - \( e_2 = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \) ### Step 4: Check the relationship between \( e_1 \) and \( e_2 \) We can check the product of the eccentricities: \[ e_1 \cdot e_2 = \sqrt{2} \cdot \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} = 1 \] This shows that the product of the eccentricities is equal to 1. ### Final Answer Thus, the relationship between the eccentricities \( e_1 \) and \( e_2 \) is: \[ e_1 \cdot e_2 = 1 \]
