If β is one of the angles between the normals to the ellipse, x^2+3...
If is one of the angles between the normals to the ellipse, at the points and then is equal to
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
B.
Step-by-step solution
Since,
\begin{aligned}
&\Rightarrow 2 x+6 y \frac{d y}{d x}=0 \\
&\Rightarrow \frac{d y}{d x}=\frac{-x}{3 y}
\end{aligned}
Slope of normal is
As, is the anagle between the normals to the given ellipse then
\begin{aligned}
&\tan \beta=\left|\frac{m_1-m_2}{1+m_1 m_2}\right| \\
&=\left|\frac{\sqrt{3} \tan \theta+\sqrt{3} \cot \theta}{1-3 \tan \theta \cot \theta}\right| \\
&=\left|\frac{\sqrt{3} \tan \theta+\sqrt{3} \cot \theta}{1-3}\right|
\end{aligned}
So,
\begin{aligned}
&\Rightarrow \quad \frac{1}{\cot \beta}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\left|\frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta}+\frac{\cos \theta}{\sin \theta}\right| \\
&\Rightarrow \quad \frac{1}{\cot \beta}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\left|\frac{1}{\sin \theta \cos \theta}\right| \\
&\Rightarrow \quad \frac{1}{\cot \beta}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{\sin 2 \theta} \Rightarrow \frac{2 \cot \beta}{\sin 2 \theta}=\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}
\end{aligned}
