Problem

The ellipse EE has equation

x225+y216=1.\frac{x^2}{25} + \frac{y^2}{16} = 1.

The line ll is the normal to the ellipse at the point PP.

(a) Show that an equation for ll is

5xsinθ4ycosθ=9sinθcosθ.5x\sin\theta - 4y\cos\theta = 9\sin\theta\cos\theta.

The point FF is the focus of EE that lies on the positive xx-axis.

(b) Determine the coordinates of FF.

用参数方程分别求 dx/dθ\mathrm{d}x/\mathrm{d}\thetady/dθ\mathrm{d}y/\mathrm{d}\theta,得到切线斜率,再取负倒数求法线斜率。随后使用点斜式并整理到题目给定形式。

答题过程

For P=(5cosθ,4sinθ)P=(5\cos\theta,4\sin\theta),

dxdθ=5sinθ,dydθ=4cosθ.\frac{\mathrm{d}x}{\mathrm{d}\theta}=-5\sin\theta, \qquad \frac{\mathrm{d}y}{\mathrm{d}\theta}=4\cos\theta.

Thus the gradient of the tangent is

dydx=4cosθ5sinθ.\frac{\mathrm{d}y}{\mathrm{d}x} =\frac{4\cos\theta}{-5\sin\theta}.

Since 0<θ<π20<\theta<\frac\pi2, both sinθ\sin\theta and cosθ\cos\theta are non-zero. Therefore the gradient of the normal is

mN=5sinθ4cosθ.m_N=\frac{5\sin\theta}{4\cos\theta}.

The normal through PP has equation

y4sinθ=5sinθ4cosθ(x5cosθ).y-4\sin\theta =\frac{5\sin\theta}{4\cos\theta} (x-5\cos\theta).

Multiplying by 4cosθ4\cos\theta and rearranging,

4ycosθ16sinθcosθ=5xsinθ25sinθcosθ,5xsinθ4ycosθ=9sinθcosθ.\begin{align*} 4y\cos\theta-16\sin\theta\cos\theta =&\,5x\sin\theta-25\sin\theta\cos\theta,\\[4mm] 5x\sin\theta-4y\cos\theta =&\,9\sin\theta\cos\theta. \end{align*}

Hence

5xsinθ4ycosθ=9sinθcosθ.\boxed{5x\sin\theta-4y\cos\theta =9\sin\theta\cos\theta}.

椭圆的半长轴为 a=5a=5、半短轴为 b=4b=4。焦距满足 c2=a2b2c^2=a^2-b^2,正 xx 轴上的焦点即为 (c,0)(c,0)

答题过程

展开

For the ellipse,

a=5,b=4.a=5, \qquad b=4.

Hence the focal distance is

c=a2b2=2516=3.c=\sqrt{a^2-b^2} =\sqrt{25-16}=3.

Therefore the focus on the positive xx-axis is

F=(3,0).\boxed{F=(3,0)}.

Also, the eccentricity is

e=ca=35.e=\frac ca=\frac35.

思路

先在 (a) 的法线方程中令 y=0y=0 求出 QQ。然后分别求 QFQFPFPF;计算 PFPF 时利用 sin2θ=1cos2θ\sin^2\theta=1-\cos^2\theta,所得二次式恰为完全平方。给定角度范围可确定长度表达式的正号。

答题过程

展开

At QQ, y=0y=0. Using the equation from part (a),

5xsinθ=9sinθcosθ.5x\sin\theta=9\sin\theta\cos\theta.

Since sinθ>0\sin\theta>0,

x=95cosθ,x=\frac95\cos\theta,

so

Q=(95cosθ,0).Q=\left(\frac95\cos\theta,0\right).

As 0<cosθ<10<\cos\theta<1,

QF=395cosθ=35(53cosθ).QF=3-\frac95\cos\theta =\frac35(5-3\cos\theta).

Also,

PF2=(5cosθ3)2+(4sinθ)2=25cos2θ30cosθ+9+16(1cos2θ)=9cos2θ30cosθ+25=(53cosθ)2.\begin{align*} PF^2 =&\,(5\cos\theta-3)^2+(4\sin\theta)^2\\[4mm] =&\,25\cos^2\theta-30\cos\theta+9\\[4mm] &\,\hspace{2pt}+16(1-\cos^2\theta)\\[4mm] =&\,9\cos^2\theta-30\cos\theta+25\\[4mm] =&\,(5-3\cos\theta)^2. \end{align*}

Since 53cosθ>05-3\cos\theta>0,

PF=53cosθ.PF=5-3\cos\theta.

Therefore

QFPF=35(53cosθ)53cosθ=35=e.\frac{QF}{PF} =\frac{\frac35(5-3\cos\theta)} {5-3\cos\theta} =\frac35=e.

Hence

QFPF=e.\boxed{\frac{QF}{PF}=e}.
