The correct option is B x2+y2a2+b2=(x2a2+y2b2)2
Since, tangents are drawn at right angles
Therefore, locus of point of intersection of tangents is a director circle x2+y2=a2+b2
Let any point on director circle be (√a2+b2cosθ,√a2+b2sinθ)
Then equation of chord of contact is T=0
x√a2+b2cosθa2+y√a2+b2sinθb2=1 ......(1)
now, let (h,k) be the mid point of chord of contact
Then equation of chord is T=S1
hxa2+kyb2=h2a2+k2b2 .....(2)
Comparing (1) and (2): h√a2+b2cosθ=k√a2+b2sinθ=h2a2+k2b2
eliminating θ, we get
x2+y2a2+b2=(x2a2+y2b2)2
Ans: B
