Q 43 :

Let the length of the latus rectum of an ellipse x2a2+y2b2=1, (a>b), be 30. If its eccentricity is the maximum value of the function f(t)=-34+2t-t2, then (a2+b2) is equal to                    [2026]

Q 44 :

If the points of intersection of the ellipses x2+2y2-6x-12y+23=0 and 4x2+2y2-20x-12y+35=0 lie on a circle of radius r and centre (a,b), then the value of ab+18r2 is.  [2026]

By family of curve equation of circle will be

S1+λS2=0

(x2+2y2-6x-12y+23)+λ(4x2+2y2-20x-12y+35)=0

for circle coeff of x2=coeff of y2

λ=12

So equation of circle is

x2+y2-163x-6y+272=0

Centre (83,3),  Radius r=4718

 ab+18r2=8+47=55
