The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the value of \( \lambda \) given the equations of the ellipse and hyperbola, their director circles, and the relationship between their eccentricities. Let's break down the solution step by step. ### Step 1: Understand the equations of the ellipse and hyperbola The equations given are: - Ellipse: \( \frac{x^2}{a^2} + \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1 \) - Hyperbola: \( \frac{x^2}{a^2} - \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1 \) ### Step 2: Find the radii of the director circles The radius of the director circle for the ellipse is given by: \[ R_1 = \sqrt{a^2 + b^2} \] The radius of the director circle for the hyperbola is given by: \[ R_2 = \sqrt{a^2 - b^2} \] ### Step 3: Set up the ratio of the radii According to the problem, the ratio of the radii is \( 1:3 \): \[ \frac{R_1}{R_2} = \frac{1}{3} \] Substituting the expressions for \( R_1 \) and \( R_2 \): \[ \frac{\sqrt{a^2 + b^2}}{\sqrt{a^2 - b^2}} = \frac{1}{3} \] ### Step 4: Square both sides to eliminate the square roots Squaring both sides gives: \[ \frac{a^2 + b^2}{a^2 - b^2} = \frac{1}{9} \] ### Step 5: Cross-multiply to solve for \( a^2 \) and \( b^2 \) Cross-multiplying results in: \[ 9(a^2 + b^2) = a^2 - b^2 \] Rearranging gives: \[ 9a^2 + 9b^2 = a^2 - b^2 \] \[ 8a^2 = -10b^2 \] Thus, we can express \( a^2 \) in terms of \( b^2 \): \[ a^2 = -\frac{5}{4}b^2 \] ### Step 6: Calculate the eccentricities The eccentricity of the ellipse \( e_1 \) is given by: \[ e_1 = \sqrt{1 - \frac{b^2}{a^2}} \] Substituting \( a^2 = -\frac{5}{4}b^2 \): \[ e_1^2 = 1 - \frac{b^2}{-\frac{5}{4}b^2} = 1 + \frac{4}{5} = \frac{9}{5} \] The eccentricity of the hyperbola \( e_2 \) is given by: \[ e_2 = \sqrt{1 + \frac{b^2}{a^2}} \] Substituting \( a^2 = -\frac{5}{4}b^2 \): \[ e_2^2 = 1 + \frac{b^2}{-\frac{5}{4}b^2} = 1 - \frac{4}{5} = \frac{1}{5} \] ### Step 7: Use the relationship to find \( \lambda \) We know: \[ \lambda = 4e_1^2 - e_2^2 \] Substituting the values of \( e_1^2 \) and \( e_2^2 \): \[ \lambda = 4 \cdot \frac{9}{5} - \frac{1}{5} = \frac{36}{5} - \frac{1}{5} = \frac{35}{5} = 7 \] ### Final Answer Thus, the value of \( \lambda \) is: \[ \lambda = 7 \]
