Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \((3,0)\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given curve is \(x=3 \cos \theta, y=2 \sin \theta\) is represent ellipse, \(\frac{x^2}{9}+\frac{y^2}{4}=1\) and the tangent perpendicular to \(X\)-axis can be drawn at end points of the major axis means either at \((3,0)\) or \((-3,0)\).
