Questions  

lf p, q are the segments of a focal chord of an ellipse b2x2+a2y2=a2b2 , then 

a
2b2(p+q)=apq
b
b2(p+q)=2apq
c
b2(p+q)=4apq
d
4b2(p+q)=apq

detailed solution

Correct option is B

If PSQ is a focal chord of ellipse then  H.M. of SP and SQ is semi latus rectum. ∴    1SP+1SQ=2ab2⇒    1p+1q=2ab2⇒    p+qpq=2ab2⇒    b2(p+q)=2apq
