Equation of a Tangent to an Ellipse (Cartesian form) : ExamSolutions Maths Revision

[@sidgamehacker]

Actually, to find the equation of tangent on an ellipse at a point(x1,y1), you can just write the equation of the ellipse replacing the x^2 term with x*x1 and the y^2 term with (y*y1), just a shortcut, although this the the proper method to do it

Good day sir. Is this also applicable in other curves like parabola and hyperbola? Or ellipse only? Thankyou.

@@mcchickenjoy6609 it's not restricted to ellipse only. But there are some other conversions too (you may google it)

I actually got y=
(root 3/2)x+4 as a tangent line equation.

U can't really explain things. Use diagram or anything.😒
