Correct option (c) -a4/b4
Explanation:
The equations of the chords of contact of tangents drawn from (x1 ,y1 ) and (x2 ,y2 ) to the ellipse x2/a2 + b2/b2 = 1 are
xx1/a2 + yy1/b2 = 1 .....(1)
and xx2/a2 + yy2/b2 = 1 ......(2)
It is given that (1) and (2) are at right angles product of their slopes is equal to –1.
