I think it should be the angle between the lines joining the two foci with one end of the minor axis
If ellipse has major axis length 2√2 unit and the angle between the lines joining the focus to the minor axis is 90°,then calculate the length of semi latus rectum

What is the meaning of this statement:" ..the angle between the lines joining the focus to the minor axis is 90°"?
Is 90 degree the angle between the lines joining one of the focus to the two ends of the minor axis, or is it the angle between the lines joining the two foci with one end of the minor axis?

if it is the end ,.........
b = ae
b^2 = a^2 - b^2
b = a/root2 = 1!!!!!!
