Detailed Solution

Let P(4cosθ,3sinθ) be a point on the given ellipse such that its distance from the centre (0, 0) of the ellipse is equal to the mean of the lengths of the semi-major and semi-minor axes i.e.

OP=4+32 16cos2θ+9sin2θ=72 7cos2θ+9=494 cos2θ=1328

 cosθ=±1328 and sinθ=±1528

 cosθ=±9114 and sinθ=±10514

Hence, the required points are given by

P±2917,±310514
