Q. Let $E _1$ and $E _2$ be two ellipse. The area of the Ellipse $E _2$ is one-third the area of the quadrilateral formed by the tangents at the ends of the latus rectum of the ellipse $E_3\left(E_3: 5 x^2+9 y^2=45\right)$. The eccentricities of $E_1, E_2$ and $E_3$ are equal. $E_1$ is inscribed in $E_2$ in such a way that both $E_1$ and $E_2$ touch each other at one end of their common major axis. If the length of the major axis of $E_1$ is equal to the length of the minor axis of $E_2$, then the area of the ellipse $E_2$ outside the ellipse $E_1$ is
