Let e1and{e}_{1} and{e}_{2}betheeccentricitiesoftheellipsebe the eccentricities of the ellipse\dfrac{{x}^{2}}{25} + \dfrac{{y}^{2}}{{b}^{2}} = 1(b<5)\left(b < 5\right) and the hyperbola x216−y2b2=1\dfrac{{x}^{2}}{16} - \dfrac{{y}^{2}}{{b}^{2}} = 1 respectively satisfying e1e2=1{e}_{1}{e}_{2} = 1. If α\alpha and β\beta are the distances between the foci of the ellipse and the foci of the hyperbola respectively, then the ordered pair (α,β)\left(\alpha, \beta\right) is equal to:

Options

  1. A(8,10)\left(8, 10\right)
  2. B(203,12)\left(\dfrac{20}{3}, 12\right)
  3. C(8,12)\left(8, 12\right)
  4. D(245,10)\left(\dfrac{24}{5}, 10\right)

Correct answer

A. (8,10)\left(8, 10\right)

Step-by-step solution

e1=1−b225{e}_{1} = \sqrt{1 - \dfrac{{b}^{2}}{25}} and e2=1+b216{e}_{2} = \sqrt{1 + \dfrac{{b}^{2}}{16}}

Given e1e2=1{e}_{1}{e}_{2} = 1

⇒(e1e2)2=1⇒(1−b225)(1+b216)=1⇒ {\left({e}_{1}{e}_{2}\right)}^{2} = 1 ⇒ \left(1 - \dfrac{{b}^{2}}{25}\right)\left(1 + \dfrac{{b}^{2}}{16}\right) = 1

⇒b216−b225−b425×16=0⇒ \dfrac{{b}^{2}}{16} - \dfrac{{b}^{2}}{25} - \dfrac{{b}^{4}}{25 \times 16} = 0

⇒916×25b2−b425×16=0⇒b2=9⇒ \dfrac{9}{16 \times 25}{b}^{2} - \dfrac{{b}^{4}}{25 \times 16} = 0 ⇒ {b}^{2} = 9

Thus, e1=1−925=45{e}_{1} = \sqrt{1 - \dfrac{9}{25}} = \dfrac{4}{5} and e2=1+916=54{e}_{2} = \sqrt{1 + \dfrac{9}{16}} = \dfrac{5}{4}

Therefore, α=2(5)(e1)=8\alpha = 2\left(5\right)\left({e}_{1}\right) = 8 and β=2(4)(e2)=10\beta = 2\left(4\right)\left({e}_{2}\right) = 10

∴(α,β)=(8,10)∴ \left(\alpha, \beta\right) = \left(8, 10\right)
