  1. A \(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\)
  2. B \(\frac{1}{2 \sqrt{2}}\)
  3. C \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\)
  4. D \(\frac{1}{2}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\frac{ x ^{2}}{4}+\frac{ y ^{2}}{2}=1\) Coordinate of \(D\) is \(\left(\frac{2 \cos \theta+4}{2}, \frac{\sqrt{2} \sin \theta+3}{2}\right) \equiv(h, k)\) \(\frac{2 h -4}{2}=\cos \theta\) \(\frac{2 k -3}{\sqrt{2}}=\sin \theta\) \((i)^{2}+(\text { ii })^{2}\), then we get…
