Options
- A4
- B2
- C3
- D6
Correct answer
C. 3
Step-by-step solution
Given equation of an ellipse is x² 16 + y² 4 =1 and point P(2, 3 ) Let be the eccentric angle. The parametric coordinate of an ellipse is . array l x=4 y=2 array ...(i) Given that, eccentric angle at P is, aligned 2 &=4 = 1 2 2 &=2 = 3 2 aligned Hence, = 3
