Q10 / 53 · NTA Abhyas (JEE Main) 2020 · Mathematics · Ellipse

The angle between the pair of tangents drawn to the ellipse 3 x 2 +2 y 2 =5 from the point 1, 2 is tan −1 12 λ , then the value of λ is

Correct answer: 5

Solution

Equation of pair of tangents
3 x 2 +2 y 2 −5 6 = 3x+4y−5 2
9 x 2 −4 y 2 −24xy+30x+40y−55=0
tanθ= 12 5

Hence, the correct answer is 5.
