A focus of an ellipse is at the origin. The directrix is the line $$x=4$$ and the eccentricity is $${{1 \over 2}}$$. Then the length of the semi-major axis is :

A parabola has the origin as its focus and the line $$x=2$$ as the directrix. Then the vertex of the parabola is at :

$$AB$$ is a vertical pole with $$B$$ at the ground level and $$A$$ at the top. $$A$$ man finds that the angle of elevation of the point $$A$$ from a certain point $$C$$ on the ground is $${60^ \circ }$$. He moves away from the pole along the line $$BC$$ to a point $$D$$ such that $$CD=7$$ m. From $$D$$ the angle of elevation of the point $$A$$ is $${45^ \circ }$$. Then the height of the pole is :

The value of $$cot\left( {\cos e{c^{ - 1}}{5 \over 3} + {{\tan }^{ - 1}}{2 \over 3}} \right)$$ is :
