Question : 5 of 50
 
Marks: +1, -0
The points on the curve x29+y225=1, where tangent is parallel to X-axis are
Solution:
Explanation: The equation of the given curve:
x29+y225=1
On differentiating both sides w.r.t. x , we get
2x9+2y25dydx=1â‹…â‹…â‹…â‹…â‹…â‹…â‹…(i)
dydx=−25x9y
Since, tangent is parallel to X -axis, then the slope of the tangent is zero.
∴−259xy=0 , which is possible if x=0
Put x=0 in eq (i), we get
y225=1⇒y2=25⇒y=±5
Hence, required points are (0,±5) .
