Detailed Solution

Solving 4x2+y2=5 with the line y=32x we get the point of intersection as P12,2 and Q(1,1) 

Tangent at 12,2 is 4x12+y2=5 slope is -1  and slope of tangent at Q(1,1) is -4

Slopes of the normal  are 1, 1/4. If  θ be the angle  between the normal, then  

tanθ=m1m21+m1m2=11/41+1/4=35
