Correct answer: B
Let the given tangent be First rewrite it in slope form: So the slope is The given point of contact is
We now match this with the entries in the columns.
1. Identify the conic from Column 3 (point of contact)
We test which point-of-contact formula can produce
Case (R):
Using and equating the second coordinate to : Since we get Now check the first coordinate: \frac{-a^2m}{\sqrt{a^2m^2+1}}=rac{-4\left(-\frac{\sqrt3}{2}\right)}{2}=\sqrt3, which matches.
So the point corresponds to (R).
2. Identify the tangent equation from Column 2
Now test with and .
Equation (iv):
Substitute values: not our line.
Equation (ii):
Substitute and : This is not the given line.
Equation (iii):
Substitute : not our line.
Equation (iv) of hyperbola-type entry in standard matching
For conic , tangent of slope is Now with and : again not the given line.
So instead let us identify directly from the conic using the point.
3. Determine which conic passes through the point and has the given tangent
Option labels suggest checking Column 1 entries.
Conic (II):
This is the ellipse At the point , So the ellipse is Tangent to at is At : which matches exactly.
Hence the conic is (II).
4. Match the tangent formula and point formula for this conic
For ellipse its tangent of slope is which is entry (iv) in Column 2.
Its point of contact corresponding to slope-form tangent is which is (R) in Column 3.
Thus the correct combination is
