Let x ^ 2 a ^ 2 + y ^ 2 b ^ 2 = 1 (a > b) be a given ellipse,...

Let x2a2+y2b2=1\dfrac{{x}^{2}}{{a}^{2}} + \dfrac{{y}^{2}}{{b}^{2}} = 1\left(a > b\right)beagivenellipse,lengthofwhoselatusrectumisbe a given ellipse, length of whose latus rectum is10.Ifitseccentricityisthemaximumvalueofthefunction,. If its eccentricity is the maximum value of the function,ϕ\left(t\right) = \dfrac{5}{12} + t - {t}^{2},then, then{a}^{2} + {b}^{2} is equal to :

Options

  1. A145145
  2. B116116
  3. C126126
  4. D135135

Correct answer

C. 126126

Step-by-step solution

LR=2b2a=10LR = \dfrac{2{b}^{2}}{a} = 10 ⇒b2=5a⇒ {b}^{2} = 5a

ϕ(t)=512−(t2−t+14−14)=512+14−(t−12)2ϕ\left(t\right) = \dfrac{5}{12} - \left({t}^{2} - t + \dfrac{1}{4} - \dfrac{1}{4}\right) = \dfrac{5}{12} + \dfrac{1}{4} - {\left(t - \dfrac{1}{2}\right)}^{2}

=23−(t−12)2= \dfrac{2}{3} - {\left(t - \dfrac{1}{2}\right)}^{2}

max ϕ(t)=23=eϕ\left(t\right) = \dfrac{2}{3} = e

b2=a2(1−e2){b}^{2} = {a}^{2}\left(1 - {e}^{2}\right)

5a=a2(1−49)5a = {a}^{2}\left(1 - \dfrac{4}{9}\right)

⇒5=59a⇒ 5 = \dfrac{5}{9}a

⇒a2=81,b2=45⇒ {a}^{2} = 81, {b}^{2} = 45

a2+b2=126{a}^{2} + {b}^{2} = 126.
