### IIT-JEE 1999

Subjective
Consider the family of circles $${x^2} + {y^2} = {r^2},\,\,2 < r < 5$$. If in the first quadrant, the common taingent to a circle of this family and the ellipse $$4{x^2} + 25{y^2} = 100$$ meets the co-ordinate axes at $$A$$ and $$B$$, then find the equation of the locus of vthe mid-point of $$AB$$.

$${{25} \over {{x^2}}} + {4 \over {{y^2}}} = 4$$

Subjective
Find the co-ordinates of all the points $$P$$ on the ellipse $${{{x^2}} \over {{a^2}}} + {{{y^2}} \over {{b^2}}} = 1$$, for which the area of the triangle $$PON$$ is maximum, where $$O$$ denotes the origin and $$N$$, the foot of the perpendicular from $$O$$ to the tangent at $$P$$.

$$\left( {{{{a^2}} \over {\sqrt {{a^2} + {b^2}} }},{{{b^2}} \over {\sqrt {{a^2} + {b^2}} }}} \right)$$
