At which points are the tangents drawn to the ellipse x 2 + y 2 = [ a ] x + [ a ] y parallel to
In-s [12.5K]

The given equation of the ellipse is x^2 + y^2 = 2 x + 2 y

At tangent line, the point is horizontal with the x-axis therefore slope = dy / dx = 0

<span>So we have to take the 1st derivative of the equation then equate dy / dx to zero.</span>

x^2 + y^2 = 2 x + 2 y

x^2 – 2 x = 2 y – y^2

(2x – 2) dx = (2 – 2y) dy

(2x – 2) / (2 – 2y) = 0

2x – 2 = 0

x = 1

 

To find for y, we go back to the original equation then substitute the value of x.

x^2 + y^2 = 2 x + 2 y

1^2 + y^2 = 2 * 1 + 2 y

y^2 – 2y + 1 – 2 = 0

y^2 – 2y – 1 = 0

Finding the roots using the quadratic formula:

y = [-(- 2) ± sqrt ( (-2)^2 – 4*1*-1)] / 2*1

y = 1 ± 2.828

y = -1.828 , 3.828

 

<span>Therefore the tangents are parallel to the x-axis at points (1, -1.828) and (1, 3.828).</span>

Find the critical value t a/2 needed to construct a confidence interval of the given level with the given sample size. level 95%
stepan [7]
Α = 1- (95/100) = 1-0.95 = 0.05

p = 1- α/2 = 1- 0.05/2 = 1-0.025 = 0.975

Degrees of freedom, df = Sample size -1 = 11-1 = 10

From t-tables, with cumulative probability pf 0.975 and df of 10,
Critical value = 2.228
