Q41 / 90 · JEE Main 2024 (31 Jan Shift 2) · Mathematics
Let be a parabola with vertex and directrix . Let an ellipse of eccentricity pass through the focus of the parabola . Then the square of the length of the latus rectum of , is
- A
- B
- C
- Correct answerD
Solution

Let be the foot of perpendicular from vertex to directrix of parabola,
Now, finding we get,
Eccentricity of ellipse is given as .
Now, finding using eccentricity formula we get,
So, equation of ellipse will be,
{as }
Length of latus rectum is given by,
.
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
