Consider ellipses Ek : kx 2 + k 2 y 2 = 1, k = 1, 2,..., 20. Let Ck be the circle which touches the four chords joining the end points (one on minor axis and another on major axis) of the ellipse E k . If r k is the radius of the circle C k , then the value of
i
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
Given

Now equation of the chord joining the point
will be,


Now r k =Perpendicular distance of L k from (0,0) we get,


Now putting the value of
in
we get,

=210+2870=3080
