Detailed Solution

16x2+y2=145
16×22+y2=145
64+y2=145
y2=81
y=9, -9
Since, it is given that y1>0, y=9.
 x1,y1=2,9
Finding the slope of tangent at
x1,y1=2,9
Let us find the derivative of 16x2+y2=145 at x1,y1=2,9.
Differentiating the above function with respect to x, we get,
dydx16x2+y2=145  dydx16x2+y2=dydx(145)
32x+2y dydx=0
dydx=-32x2y
Now, we will substitute x1,y1=2,9 in the equation.
dydx=-32x2y
dydx=-32×22×9
dydx=-329
The slope of tangent can be written as mt=-329.
Finding the equation of tangent, x1,y1 is given as y-y1=mtx-x1
Substituting
y-9=-329(x-2)
y-9=-32x+649
9y-81=-32x+64
9y+32x=145
Hence, the equation of tangent at x1,y1=(2,9) is 9y+32x=145.
Finding the slope of normal
Substituting the value of mt=-329,
We get mn×mt=-1
mn×-329=-1
mn=932
Equation of a normal with slope mn at point x1,y1 is given as
y-y1=mnx-x1
y-9=932x-2
y-9=9x-1832
32y-288=9x-18
32y-9x=270
Hence, the equation of normal at x1,y1=(2,9) is 32y-9x=270.
