- D74
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: C
- Find the centre and radius of the circle
Given circle:
Complete the squares:
So the centre is and the radius is
- Use the condition that the ellipse passes through the centre of the circle
Ellipse:
Since it passes through ,
Hence the ellipse is
Multiply by :
Write in standard form:
So with major axis along the -axis.
- Find the foci of the ellipse
For the ellipse we have Thus
So the foci are
- Find the focal distances of the point
Let
Then
Therefore,
Since we get
Hence
- Compute the required quantity
- Match with the options
corresponds to Option C.
So the correct answer is C.
