Explanation
Step 1: Curve ko standard form mein likhein
Diya gaya curve ek ellipse hai: 9x2+16y2=144
Dono taraf 144 se divide karne par:
Yahan a2=16⟹a=4 aur b2=9⟹b=3.
Step 2: Tangent ki equation (Parametric form)
Ellipse ke kisi bhi point (acosθ,bsinθ) par tangent ki equation hoti hai:
Value rakhne par: 4xcosθ+3ysinθ=1
Step 3: Points A aur B ke coordinates
-
Point A (x-axis par): y=0 rakhein, toh x=cosθ4. Isliye A=(cosθ4,0).
-
Point B (y-axis par): x=0 rakhein, toh y=sinθ3. Isliye B=(0,sinθ3).
Step 4: Line segment AB ki length (L)
Distance formula se:
L2=(cosθ4)2+(sinθ3)2=cos2θ16+sin2θ9
Step 5: Minimum length nikalna
Hume pata hai ki a2sec2θ+b2csc2θ ki minimum value (a+b)2 hoti hai.
Yahan a2=16⟹a=4 aur b2=9⟹b=3.
Final Answer:
Line segment AB ki minimum length 7 hai.
