Let T be the line passing through the points P(- 2, 7) and Q (2, -...
Let be the line passing through the points {F}_{1}be the T{S}_{1}P and tangent to at , and also such that touch each other at a point, say, . Let be the set representing the locus of pair \left({S}_{1}, {S}_{2}\right) varies in. Let the set of all straight line segments joining a pair of distinct points of and passing through the point be . Let be the set of the mid-points of the line segments in the set . Then, which of the following statement(s) is (are) TRUE?

Options
- AThe point lies in
- BThe point does NOT lie in
- CThe point lies in
- DThe point does NOT lie in
Correct answer
B. The point does NOT lie in
Step-by-step solution
So
Locus of is a circle having as its diameter
Hence,
Clearly \left(- 2, 7\right) does not lie on as it does not satisfy the equation above.
The equation of chord with T = {S}_{1}xh + yk - y - k - 39 = {h}^{2} + {k}^{2} - 2k - 39xh + yk - y + k = {h}^{2} + {k}^{2}R\left(1, 1\right)h + k - 1 + k = {h}^{2} + {k}^{2}{E}_{2}{x}^{2} + {y}^{2} - x - 2y + 1 = 0PMPQM does not lie in . \left(\dfrac{1}{2}, 1\right){E}_{2}.
