Question

Consider an ellipse having its foci at a(z1) and B(z2) in the Argand plane. If the eccentricity of the ellipse be e and it is known that origin is an interior point of the ellipse, then prove that e(0,|z1z2||z1|+|z2|).

Solution
Verified by Toppr

Let P(z) be any point on the ellipse. Then equation of the ellipse is
|zz1|+|zz2|=|z1z2|e (1)
If we replace z by z1 or z2, L.H.S. of (1) becomes |z1z2|. Thus, for any interior point of the ellipse, we have |zz1|+|zz2|<|z1z2|e
It is given that origin is an interior point of the ellipse
|0z1|+|0z2|<|z1z2|e
e(0,|z1z2||z1|+|z2|)
Ans: 1
