Explanation:
$r^{2}=(x-2)^{2}+y^{2}$
Solving simultaneously
$-5 x^{2}+36 x+\left(9 r^{2}-180\right)=0$
$D=0$
$r^{2}=\frac{128}{10}$
Distance between $(1, \alpha)$ and $(2,0)$ should be $r$
$ \begin{aligned} & 1+\alpha^{2}=\frac{128}{10} \\\\ & \alpha^{2}=\frac{118}{10} \\\\ &=118.00 \end{aligned} $
Let a tangent to the curve $9{x^2} + 16{y^2} = 144$ intersect the coordinate axes at the points A and B. Then, the minimum length of the line segment AB is ________
Explanation:
Given curve,
$9{x^2} + 16{y^2} = 144$
$ \Rightarrow {{{x^2}} \over {16}} + {{{y^2}} \over 9} = 1$
$ \Rightarrow {{{x^2}} \over {{4^2}}} + {{{y^2}} \over {{3^2}}} = 1$
$\therefore$ a = 4 and b = 3
So, general point on the ellipse is $ = (4\cos \theta ,3\sin \theta )$
We know,
Equation of tangent to a given ellipse at its point $(a\cos\theta ,b\sin \theta )$ is
${{x\cos \theta } \over a} + {{y\sin \theta } \over b} = 1$
$\therefore$ Here equation of tangent at point $(4\cos \theta ,3\sin \theta )$ is
${{x\cos \theta } \over 4} + {{y\sin \theta } \over 3} = 1$
When this tangent cut's x axis then y = 0.
$\therefore$ ${{x\cos \theta } \over 4} + 0 = 1$
$ \Rightarrow x = 4\sec \theta $
$\therefore$ Point of intersection at x axis is $A(4\sec \theta ,0)$.
When this tangent cut's y axis then x = 0.
$\therefore$ $0 + {{y\sin \theta } \over 3} = 1$
$ \Rightarrow y = 3\cos ec\theta $
$\therefore$ Point of intersection at y axis is $B(0,3\cos ec\theta )$
$\therefore$ Length of AB
$ = \sqrt {{{(4\sec \theta - 0)}^2} + {{(0 - 3\cos ec\theta )}^2}} $
$ = \sqrt {16{{\sec }^2}\theta + 9\cos e{c^2}\theta } $
$ = \sqrt {16(1 + {{\tan }^2}\theta ) + 9(1 + {{\cot }^2}\theta )} $
$ = \sqrt {25 + 16{{\tan }^2}\theta + 9{{\cot }^2}\theta } $
We know, $AM \ge GM$
$\therefore$ ${{16{{\tan }^2}\theta + 9{{\cot }^2}\theta } \over 2} \ge \sqrt {(16{{\tan }^2}\theta )(9{{\cot }^2}\theta )} $
$ \Rightarrow 16{\tan ^2}\theta + 9{\cot ^2}\theta \ge 2(4\tan \theta )(3\cot \theta )$
$ \Rightarrow 16{\tan ^2}\theta + 9{\cot ^2}\theta \ge 2 \times 4 \times 3$
$ \Rightarrow 16{\tan ^2}\theta + 9{\cot ^2}\theta \ge 24$
$\therefore$ $AB = \sqrt {25 + 16{{\tan }^2}\theta + 9{{\cot }^2}\theta } $
$ \ge \sqrt {25 + 24} $
$ \ge \sqrt {49} $
$ \ge 7$
$\therefore$ Minimum length of $AB = 7$.
If an ellipse with its axes as coordinate axes, $2 a$ and $2 b$ as the lengths of its major and minor axes respectively passes through the points $(2,2)$ and $(3,1)$, then $3 a^2+5 b^2=$

If $x+\sqrt{3} y=3$ is the tangent to the ellipse $2 x^2+3 y^2=k$ at a point $P$, then the equation of the normal to this ellipse at $P$ is
$5 x-2 \sqrt{3} y=1$
$x-\sqrt{3} y=2$
$x-\sqrt{3} y+1=0$
$3 x-\sqrt{3} y=1$
When the origin is shifted to the point $(h, k)$ by translating the coordinates axes, the equation $S \equiv 2 x^2-x y+y^2+2 x+3 y+1=0$ is changed to $S \equiv a x^2+2 h x y+b y^2-3=0$. Again by rotating the coordinate axes about the new origin through the angle $\theta$ in the positive direction, $S^{\prime}=0$ is changed to $A x^2+B y^2+C=0$. Then, $h+k+\tan 2 \theta=$
