The equations of the director circles of ellipse and hyperbola are x^2+y^2=a^2+b^2\, \, and \, \, x^2+y^2=a^2-b^2{ }_1 respectively.

\mathrm{ \begin{aligned} & \therefore 2 r=\sqrt{a^2+b^2} \text { and } r=\sqrt{a^2-b_1^2} \\\\ & \Rightarrow 2 \sqrt{a^2-b_1^2}=\sqrt{a^2+b^2} \Rightarrow 4\left(a^2-b_1^2\right)=a^2+b^2 \\\\ & \Rightarrow 4\left(1-\frac{b_1^2}{a^2}\right)=\left(1+\frac{b^2}{a^2}\right) \\\\ & \Rightarrow 4\left\{1-\left(e_h^2-1\right)\right\}=1+\left(1-e_e^2\right) \\\\ & \Rightarrow 8-4 e_h^2=2-e_e^2 \Rightarrow 4 e_h^2-e_e^2=6 \end{aligned} }
