The normal at a point P on the ellipse ...

The normal at a point `P` on the ellipse `x^2+4y^2=16` meets the x-axis at `Qdot` If `M` is the midpoint of the line segment `P Q ,` then the locus of `M` intersects the latus rectums of the given ellipse at points. (a)`(+-((3sqrt(5)))/2+-2/7)` (b) `(+-((3sqrt(5)))/2+-(sqrt(19))/7)` (c)`(+-2sqrt(3),+-1/7)` (d) `(+-2sqrt(3)+-(4sqrt(3))/7)`
