Let $S$ and $S ^ { \prime }$ be the foci of an ellipse and $B$ be any one of the extremities of its minor axis. If $\Delta S ^ { \prime } B S$ is a right angled triangle with right angle at $B$ and area $\left( \Delta S ^ { \prime } B S \right) = 8$ sq. units, then the length of a latus rectum of the ellipse is :\\
(1) $2 \sqrt { 2 }$\\
(2) 2\\
(3) 4\\
(4) $4 \sqrt { 2 }$
