Let $P$ be the point of intersection of the common tangents to the parabola $y^2 = 12x$ and the hyperbola $8x^2 - y^2 = 8$. If $S$ and $S'$ denote the foci of the hyperbola where $S$ lies on the positive $x$-axis,then $P$ divides $SS'$ in the ratio:

Which one of the following is the common tangent to the ellipses $\frac{x^2}{a^2 + b^2} + \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1$ and $\frac{x^2}{a^2} + \frac{y^2}{a^2 + b^2} = 1$?

Identify the statements which are True.

The eccentricity of an ellipse $E$ with centre at the origin $O$ is $\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$ and its directrices are $x = \pm \frac{4\sqrt{6}}{3}$. Let $H : \frac{x^2}{a^2} - \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1$ be a hyperbola whose eccentricity is equal to the length of semi-major axis of $E$, and whose length of latus rectum is equal to the length of minor axis of $E$. Then the distance between the foci of $H$ is :

Let $\frac{x^2}{a^2} + \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1, a > b$ be an ellipse,whose eccentricity is $\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$ and the length of the latus rectum is $\sqrt{14}$. Then the square of the eccentricity of $\frac{x^2}{a^2} - \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1$ is:

If the foci of $\frac{x^{2}}{16}+\frac{y^{2}}{4}=1$ and $\frac{x^{2}}{a^{2}}-\frac{y^{2}}{9}=1$ coincide,then the value of $a$ is
