If x+ y=109 is the equation of the chord of the ellipse x^2 9 + y^2 4 =1 , whose mid point is ( 5 2 , 1 2 ) , then + is equal to :
Options
- A58
- B46
- C37
- D72
Correct answer
A. 58
Step-by-step solution
Equation of chord T = S ₁ aligned & 5 2 ( x 9 )+ 1 2 ( y 4 )= 25 36 + 1 16 & 5 x 18 + y 8 = 100+9 144 = 109 144 & 40 x +18 y =109 & =40, =18 & + =58 aligned
