Work done=Area under ellipse  ⇒   W=πP_0 V_0   Heat received = Area under  upper ellipse curve and V axes  between V=(V_0 /2)  and  V=((3V_0 )/2)       + △(Internal energy while  expansion)  ⇒  Q=P_0 V_0 +((πP_0 V_0 )/2)+(3/2)P_0 (((3V_0 )/2)−(V_0 /2))  efficiency = ((work done by gas)/(heat received))  ⇒   η = ((πP_0 V_0 )/((5/2)P_0 V_0 +((πP_0 V_0 )/2))) = ((2π)/(π+5)) .  So  (a), and (c) .
