उत्तर
A focus of an ellipse is at the origin. The directrix is the line x = 4 and the eccentricity is `1/2`. Then the length of the semi-major axis is `underlinebb(8/3)`.
Explanation:
Perpendicular distance of directrix from
focus = `a/e - ae` = 4
`\implies a(2 - 1/2)` = 4
`\implies a = 8/3`
∴ Semi major axis = `8/3`
