Q.

Let the end points M and N of the diameter 4x – y = 15 of the circle  x2+y26x+6y16=0 are also on the tangents at the end points of the major axis of the ellipse respectively, such that MN is also tangent to the same ellipse. The major axis is along the line y = x then which of the following option(s) is (are) TRUE?

Detailed Solution

 M(3+2,3+42)N(32,342)
End points of major axis are  A(52,52)A'(52,52)
length of major axis  =2a=AA'=10
 a=5
centre =A+A'2=(0,0) 
focii of ellipse are S (α,α)and  S'(α,α) x+y=52,x+y=52&4xy=15  are tangents to the ellipse
 (SP)(S'Q)=b2
 |522α2||52+2α2|=|153α17||15+3α17|=b2α2=8
 S(22, 22), S'(22,22)          SS'=2ae=(42)2=8         ae=4          e=45
length of latus rectum  =2b2a=2(17)5=345
equation of directrices : x+y=2524   or  2524
