Solution

Equation of tangent at point $P (4 \cos \theta, 3 \sin \theta)$ is $\frac{x \cos \theta}{4}+\frac{y \sin \theta}{3}=1$ So A is $(4 \sec \theta, 0)$ and point $B$ is $(0,3 \operatorname{cosec} \theta)$

Length $A B =\sqrt{16 \sec ^2 \theta+9 \operatorname{cosec}^2 \theta}$ $=\sqrt{25+16 \tan ^2 \theta+9 \cot ^2 \theta} \geq 7$
