જો $\frac{x}{a}\,\, + \;\,\frac{y}{b}\,\, = \,\,\sqrt 2 $ ઉપવલય  $\frac{{{x^2}}}{{{a^2}}}\,\, + \;\,\frac{{{y^2}}}{{{b^2}}}\,\, = \,\,1\,$ ને સ્પર્શે, તો તેનો ઉત્કેન્દ્રીકોણ (Eccentric Angle) $\,\theta \,\, = \,\, ............ $ $^o$

A

$0$

B

$90$

C

$45$

D

$60$

Solution

Equation of tangent in parametric form to an ellipse is $\frac{x \cos \theta}{a}+\frac{y \sin \theta}{b}=1$

Comparing it with given equation

$\Rightarrow \cos \theta=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}, \sin \theta=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$

$\Rightarrow \theta=\frac{\pi}{4}$

So the eccentric angle is $45^{\circ}$
