10-2. Parabola, Ellipse, Hyperbola
normal
If the line $y = mx + c$touches the ellipse $\frac{{{x^2}}}{{{b^2}}} + \frac{{{y^2}}}{{{a^2}}} = 1$, then $c = $
A
$ \pm \sqrt {{b^2}{m^2} + {a^2}} $
B
$ \pm \sqrt {{a^2}{m^2} + {b^2}} $
C
$ \pm \sqrt {{b^2}{m^2} - {a^2}} $
D
$ \pm \sqrt {{a^2}{m^2} - {b^2}} $
Solution
(a) Since, here $a$ and $b$ are interchanged.
