The end point of latus rectum of ellipse

$${{{x^2}} \over {{a^2}}} + {{{y^2}} \over {{b^2}}} = 1$$ in first quadrant is

$$\left( {ae,{{{b^2}} \over a}} \right)$$ and the tangent at this point

intersects $$x$$-axis at $$\left( {{a \over e},0} \right)$$ and

$$y$$-axis at $$(0,a).$$

The given ellipse is $${{x{}^2} \over 9} + {{{y^2}} \over 5} = 1$$

Then $${a^2} = 9,{b^2} = 5$$

$$ \Rightarrow e = \sqrt {1 - {5 \over 9}} = {2 \over 3}$$

$$\therefore$$ end point of latus rectum in first quadrant is

$$L\left( {2,\,\,5/3} \right)$$

Equation of tangent at $$L$$ is $${{2x} \over 9} + {y \over 3} - 1$$

It meets $$x$$-axis at $$A(9/2, 0)$$

and $$y$$-axis at $$B(0,3)$$

$$\therefore$$ Area of $$\Delta OAB = {1 \over 2} \times {9 \over 2} \times 3 = {{27} \over 4}$$



By symmetry area of quadrilateral

$$ = 4 \times \left( {Area\,\,\Delta OAB} \right) = 4 \times {{27} \over 4} = 27\,\,$$ sq. units.

Let the coordinates of Q and P be (x₁, y₁) and (h, k) respectively.

$$\because$$ Q lies on x² = 8y,

$$\therefore$$ x$$_1^2$$ = 8y ....... (1)

Again, P divides OQ internally in the ratio 1 : 3.

$$\therefore$$ $$h = {{{x_1} + 0} \over 4} = {{{x_1}} \over 4}$$ or x₁ = 4h and

$$k = {{{y_1} + 0} \over 4} = {{{y_1}} \over 4}$$ or y₁ = 4k

Now putting x₁ and y₁ in (1) we get,

16h² = 32k or, h² = 2k

$$\therefore$$ the locus of P is given by, x² = 2y.

Given curve is

$${x^2} + 2xy - 3{y^2} = 0$$

Difference $$w.r.t.x,$$

$$2x + 2x{{dy} \over {dx}} + 2y - 6y{{dy} \over {dx}} = 0$$

$${\left( {{{dy} \over {dx}}} \right)_{\left( {1,1} \right)}} = 1$$

Equation of normal at $$(1,1)$$ is

$$y=2-x$$

Solving eq. $$(1)$$ and $$(2),$$ we get $$x=1,3$$

Point of intersection $$\left( {1,1} \right),\left( {3, - 1} \right)$$

Normal cuts the curve again in $$4$$th quadrant.

Let tangent to $${y^2} = 4x$$ be $$y = mx + {1 \over m}$$

Since this is also tangent to $${x^2} = - 32y$$

$$\therefore$$ $${x^2} = - 32\left( {mx + {1 \over m}} \right)$$

$$ \Rightarrow {x^2} + 32mx + {{32} \over m} = 0$$

Now, $$D=0$$

$${\left( {32} \right)^2} - 4\left( {{{32} \over m}} \right) = 0$$

$$ \Rightarrow {m^3} = {4 \over {32}} \Rightarrow m = {1 \over 2}$$
