The mid-point of a chord of the ellipse x^2+4 y^2-2 x+20 y=0 is (2,-4) . The equation of the chord is
Options
- Ax-6 y=26
- Bx+6 y=26
- C6 x-y=26
- D6 x+y=26
Correct answer
A. x-6 y=26
Step-by-step solution
Equation of chord at (2,-4) is aligned & T=S^ & 2 x+4 y(-4)-(x+2)+10(y-4) & =(2)^2+4(-4)^2+2(2)+20(-4) & 2 x-16 y-x-2+10 y-40 & =4+64-4-80 & x-6 y=42-16 26 & aligned
