Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(6\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given ellipse is \(2 x^2+3 y^2=6\) \(\Rightarrow \quad \frac{x^2}{3}+\frac{y^2}{2}=1\) Polar of \(P(1,2)\) with respect to ellipse is \(S_1=0\). \(\Rightarrow \quad x+3 y-3=0\) Since, \((1,2)\) and \((k,-1)\) are conjugates, therefore one passes through the polar of the other…
