Find the equations of tangent and normal to the ellipse `(x^2)/(a^2)+(y^2)/(b^2)=1` at `(x_1,y_1)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

ATQ $$ \begin{aligned} &\frac{x^{2}}{a^{2}}+\frac{y^{2}}{b^{2}}=1 \\ &\frac{2 x d x}{a^{2}} \frac{2 y}{d y}+\frac{2 y}{b^{2}}=0 \\ &-\frac{d x}{d y}=\frac{a^{2} y_{1}}{b^{2} x_{1}} \\ &\text { Line }-y=m x+c \\ &y=\frac{a^{2} y_{1}}{b^{2} x_{1}} x+c ...
