Consider an ellipse x^2/25+y^2/9=1 with centre c and a point P on it with eccentric angle pi/4. Nomal drawn at P intersects the major and minor axes in A and B respectively. N_1 and N_2 are the feet of the perpendiculars from the foci S_1 and S_2 respectively on the tangent at P and N is the foot of the perpendicular from the centre of the ellipse on the normal at P. Tangent at P intersects the axis of x at T.
