General value of $$\theta $$ satisfying the equation $${\tan ^2}\theta + \sec \,2\,\theta = 1$$ is _________.

A circle passes through three points A, B and C with the line segment AC as its diameter. A line passing through A angles DAB and CAB are $$\,\alpha \,\,and\,\,\beta $$ respectively and the distance between the point A and the mid point of the line segment DC is d, prove that the area of the circle is $$${{\pi \,{d^2}\,\,{{\cos }^2}\,\,\alpha } \over {{{\cos }^2}\,\alpha \, + \,{{\cos }^2}\,\beta \, + \,\,2\,\cos \,\,\alpha \,\,\cos \,\beta \,\cos \,\,(\beta - \alpha )\,}}$$$

Find the intervals of value of a for which the line y + x = 0 bisects two chords drawn from a point $$\left( {{{1\, + \,\sqrt 2 a} \over 2},\,{{1\, - \,\sqrt 2 a} \over 2}} \right)$$ to the circle $$\,\,2{x^2}\, + \,2{y^2} - (\,1\, + \sqrt 2 a)\,x - (1 - \sqrt 2 a)\,y = 0$$.

An ellipse has eccentricity $${1 \over 2}$$ and one focus at the point $$P\left( {{1 \over 2},1} \right)$$. Its one directrix is the common tangent, nearer to the point $$P$$, to the circle $${x^2} + {y^2} = 1$$ and the hyperbol;a $${x^2} - {y^2} = 1$$. The equation of the ellipse, in the standard form, is ............
