Q.

Let a line L pass through the point of intersection of the lines bx+10y8=0 and 2x3y=0,bR43. If the line L also passes through the point (1,1) and touches the circle 17x2+y2=16, then the eccentricity of the ellipse x25+y2b2=1is:

Detailed Solution

Line L is given by (bx+10y8)+λ(2x3y)=0 
(b+2λ)x+(103λ)y8=0
As line L is passing through (1,1) is  b+2λ+103λ8=0 b+2=λ
Now, L becomes (b+2(b+2))x+(103(b+2))y8=0
(3b+4)x(3b4)y8=0
Now, L is also a tangent to circle 17x2+y2=16
|008|(3b+4)2+(3b4)2=1617649b2+16+24b+9b2+1624b=161718b2+32=6818b2=36b2=2
Now eccentricity of the ellipse x25+y2b2=1 is e=125
e=35
