  1. a to the power of 2 end exponent s i n to the power of 2 end exponent invisible function application alpha plus b to the power of 2 end exponent c o s to the power of 2 end exponent invisible function application alpha equals p to the power of 2 end exponent    
  2. a to the power of 2 end exponent plus b to the power of 2 end exponent s i n to the power of 2 end exponent invisible function application alpha equals p to the power of 2 end exponent c o s e c to the power of 2 end exponent invisible function application alpha    
  3. a to the power of 2 end exponent c o s to the power of 2 end exponent invisible function application alpha plus b to the power of 2 end exponent s i n to the power of 2 end exponent invisible function application alpha equals p to the power of 2 end exponent    
  4. None of these    

hintHint:

In this question, we have to find the correct option if the line x cos alpha + y sin alpha = p touches the ellipse fraction numerator x to the power of 2 end exponent over denominator a to the power of 2 end exponent end fraction plus fraction numerator y to the power of 2 end exponent over denominator b to the power of 2 end exponent end fraction equals 1. For this we will first have to solve the given equation to find the value of x subscript 1 space a n d space y subscript 1 and later substitute in the equation of ellipse to find the correct equation.

The correct answer is: a to the power of 2 end exponent c o s to the power of 2 end exponent invisible function application alpha plus b to the power of 2 end exponent s i n to the power of 2 end exponent invisible function application alpha equals p to the power of 2 end exponent
