Detailed Solution

Given ellipse x2a2+y2b2=1

Given P(θ), Qπ2+θ are two points on ellipse then 

P=(a cosθ, b sinθ), Q=a cosπ2+θ, b sinπ2+θ  P=(a cosθ, b sinθ), Q=(-a sinθ, b cosθ))

Let C (x, y) be locus of mid point of PQ

  (x, y)=a cosθ-a sinθ2, b sinθ+b cosθ2  x=acosθ-sinθ2, y=bsinθ+cosθ2  cosθ-sinθ2=xa   -(1),  sinθ+cosθ2=yb   -(2)(1)2+(2)2  xa2+yb2=cosθ-sinθ22+cosθ+sinθ22  x2a2+y2b2=2(cos2θ+sin2θ)4  x2a2+y2b2=12

Given locus of mid point of PQ is 

x2a2+y2b2=k

By Comparision k=12
