If the lines $x -2y = 12$ is tangent to the ellipse $\frac{{{x^2}}}{{{a^2}}} + \frac{{{y^2}}}{{{b^2}}} = 1$ at the point $\left( {3,\frac{-9}{2}} \right)$, then the length of the latus rectum of the ellipse is
$12\sqrt 2$
$9$
$8\sqrt 3$
$5$
Find the equation for the ellipse that satisfies the given conditions: $b=3,\,\, c=4,$ centre at the origin; foci on the $x$ axis.
A rod of length $12 \,cm$ moves with its ends always touching the coordinate axes. Determine the equation of the locus of a point $P$ on the rod, which is $3\, cm$ from the end in contact with the $x-$ axis.
A vertical line passing through the point $(h, 0)$ intersects the ellipse $\frac{x^2}{4}+\frac{y^2}{3}=1$ at the points $P$ and $Q$. Let the tangents to the ellipse at $P$ and $Q$ meet at the point $R$. If $\Delta(h)=$ area of the triangle $P Q R, \Delta_1=\max _{1 / 2 \leq h \leq 1} \Delta(h)$ and $\Delta_2=\min _{1 / 2 \leq h \leq 1} \Delta(h)$, then $\frac{8}{\sqrt{5}} \Delta_1-8 \Delta_2=$
If a tangent having slope of $ - \frac{4}{3}$ to the ellipse $\frac{{{x^2}}}{{18}} + \frac{{{y^2}}}{{32}} = 1$ intersects the major and minor axes in points $A$ and $B$ respectively, then the area of $\Delta OAB$ is equal to .................. $\mathrm{sq. \, units}$ ($O$ is centre of the ellipse)
If the minimum area of the triangle formed by a tangent to the ellipse $\frac{x^{2}}{b^{2}}+\frac{y^{2}}{4 a^{2}}=1$ and the co-ordinate axis is $kab,$ then $\mathrm{k}$ is equal to ..... .
