The points of the ellipse $16x^2 + 9y^2 = 400$ at which the ordinate decreases at the same rate at which the abscissa increases is/are given by
- $\left(3, \frac{16}{3}\right)\&\left(-3, \frac{-16}{3}\right)$
- $\left(3, \frac{-16}{3}\right)\&\left(-3, \frac{16}{3}\right)$
- $\left(\frac{1}{16}, \frac{1}{9}\right)\& \left(-\frac{1}{16}, -\frac{1}{9}\right)$
- $\left(\frac{1}{16}, -\frac{1}{9}\right)\& \left(-\frac{1}{16}, \frac{1}{9}\right)$
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
$\left(5\,cos\theta, \frac{20}{3}sin\theta\right)$
$x=5cos\theta, y=\frac{20}{3}sin\theta$
$\frac{dx}{d\theta}=-5\,sin\,\theta, \frac{dy}{d\theta}=\frac{20}{3}\,cos\,\theta$
$\frac{dx}{d\theta}=-\frac{dy}{d\theta}$
$-5sin\theta=-\frac{20}{3}cos\,\theta$
$tan\theta=4/3 \Rightarrow cos\theta=3/5$ or $-3/5$
$sin\theta=4/5$ or $-4/5$
Points are $\left(3, \frac{16}{3}\right)$ and $\left(-3, \frac{-16}{3}\right)$

Concepts Used:
Ellipse
Ellipse Shape
An ellipse is a locus of a point that moves in such a way that its distance from a fixed point (focus) to its perpendicular distance from a fixed straight line (directrix) is constant. i.e. eccentricity(e) which is less than unity
Properties
- Ellipse has two focal points, also called foci.
- The fixed distance is called a directrix.
- The eccentricity of the ellipse lies between 0 to 1. 0≤e<1
- The total sum of each distance from the locus of an ellipse to the two focal points is constant
- Ellipse has one major axis and one minor axis and a center

Eccentricity of the Ellipse
The ratio of distances from the center of the ellipse from either focus to the semi-major axis of the ellipse is defined as the eccentricity of the ellipse.
The eccentricity of ellipse, e = c/a
Where c is the focal length and a is length of the semi-major axis.
Since c ≤ a the eccentricity is always greater than 1 in the case of an ellipse.
Also,
c2 = a2 – b2
Therefore, eccentricity becomes:
e = √(a2 – b2)/a
e = √[(a2 – b2)/a2] e = √[1-(b2/a2)]
Area of an ellipse
The area of an ellipse = πab, where a is the semi major axis and b is the semi minor axis.
