Let $S = 0$ be an ellipse whose vertices are the extremities of the minor axis of the ellipse $E: \frac{x^2}{a^2} + \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1$ where $a > b$. If $S = 0$ passes through the foci of $E$,then its eccentricity is (considering the eccentricity of $E$ as $e$).

The tangents drawn from the point $P(3, 4)$ to the ellipse $\frac{x^2}{9} + \frac{y^2}{4} = 1$ touch the ellipse at points $A$ and $B$. The equation of the locus of a point which is equidistant from point $P$ and the line $AB$ is:
