- Consider the ellipse \(\frac{x^2}{9}+\frac{y^2}{4}=1\). Let S (p, q) be a point in the first quadrant such that \(\frac{p^2}{9}+\frac{q^2}{4}>1\). Two tangents are drawn from S to the ellipse, of which one meets the ellipse at one end point of the minor axis and the other meets the ellipse at a point T in the fourth quadrant. Let R be the vertex of the ellipse with positive x-coordinate and Obe the center of the ellipse. If the area of the triangle △ORT is \(\frac{3}{2}\) , then which of the following options is correct ?
