The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the eccentricities of the ellipse and hyperbola given the radii of their director circles. Let's break it down step by step. ### Step 1: Identify the equations of the conics The equations given are: 1. Ellipse: \( \frac{x^2}{a^2} + \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1 \) 2. Hyperbola: \( \frac{x^2}{a^2} - \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1 \) ### Step 2: Find the radius of the director circle of the ellipse The radius of the director circle for the ellipse is given by: \[ R_E = \sqrt{a^2 + b^2} \] According to the problem, this radius is equal to \( 2r \): \[ \sqrt{a^2 + b^2} = 2r \] Squaring both sides gives: \[ a^2 + b^2 = 4r^2 \quad \text{(1)} \] ### Step 3: Find the radius of the director circle of the hyperbola The radius of the director circle for the hyperbola is given by: \[ R_H = \sqrt{a^2 - b^2} \] According to the problem, this radius is equal to \( r \): \[ \sqrt{a^2 - b^2} = r \] Squaring both sides gives: \[ a^2 - b^2 = r^2 \quad \text{(2)} \] ### Step 4: Solve the equations (1) and (2) Now we have two equations: 1. \( a^2 + b^2 = 4r^2 \) (from the ellipse) 2. \( a^2 - b^2 = r^2 \) (from the hyperbola) We can solve these equations simultaneously. Adding equations (1) and (2): \[ (a^2 + b^2) + (a^2 - b^2) = 4r^2 + r^2 \] This simplifies to: \[ 2a^2 = 5r^2 \] Thus, \[ a^2 = \frac{5r^2}{2} \quad \text{(3)} \] Now, substituting (3) into equation (1): \[ \frac{5r^2}{2} + b^2 = 4r^2 \] This gives: \[ b^2 = 4r^2 - \frac{5r^2}{2} = \frac{8r^2 - 5r^2}{2} = \frac{3r^2}{2} \quad \text{(4)} \] ### Step 5: Find the eccentricities The eccentricity \( e_E \) of the ellipse is given by: \[ e_E = \sqrt{1 - \frac{b^2}{a^2}} \] Substituting (3) and (4): \[ e_E = \sqrt{1 - \frac{\frac{3r^2}{2}}{\frac{5r^2}{2}}} = \sqrt{1 - \frac{3}{5}} = \sqrt{\frac{2}{5}} = \frac{\sqrt{10}}{5} \] The eccentricity \( e_H \) of the hyperbola is given by: \[ e_H = \sqrt{1 + \frac{b^2}{a^2}} \] Substituting (3) and (4): \[ e_H = \sqrt{1 + \frac{\frac{3r^2}{2}}{\frac{5r^2}{2}}} = \sqrt{1 + \frac{3}{5}} = \sqrt{\frac{8}{5}} = \frac{2\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{5}} \] ### Final Answer: - Eccentricity of the ellipse \( e_E = \frac{\sqrt{10}}{5} \) - Eccentricity of the hyperbola \( e_H = \frac{2\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{5}} \)
