The equation of the ellipse with its centre at (1, 2), one locus at (6, 2) and passing through (4, 6) is

  • x - 1245 + y - 2220 = 1

  • x - 1220 + y - 2245 = 1

  • x + 1245 + y + 2220 = 1

  • None of the above


A.

x - 1245 + y - 2220 = 1

Let the equation of the ellipse be,

x - 12a2 + y - 22b2 = 1        ...(i)

It passes through ( 4, 6)

               9a2 + 16b2 = 1        ...(ii)

Let e be the eccentricity of the ellipse. Then, ae = Distance between (1, 2) and (6, 2)

    ae = 5 a2e2 = 25  a2 - b2 = 25    a2 = 25 + b2                      ...(iii)

Solving (ii) and (iii), we get

      a2 = 45 and b2 = 20

Hence, the equation of the ellipse is,

x - 1245 + y - 2220 = 1
