Solution

Final Matching (List–I → List–II)

Item Result Match
(A) Eccentricity of \(x^2-4x+4y+4y^2=12\) \(\displaystyle \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\) (IV)
(B) Latus rectum of \(5x^2+9y^2=45\) \(\displaystyle \frac{10}{3}\) (I)
(C) Line \(x+y=a\) touches \(y=x-x^2\) ⇒ value of \(a\) \(1\) (II)
(D) Eccentricity of \(3x^2-y^2=4\) \(2\) (III)

Answer: (A) → (IV), (B) → (I), (C) → (II), (D) → (III)


Solutions (with steps)

(A) \(x^2-4x+4y+4y^2=12\) \[ (x-2)^2-4+4\!\left[(y+\tfrac12)^2-\tfrac14\right]=12 \;\Rightarrow\; (x-2)^2+4(y+\tfrac12)^2=17 \] \[ \frac{(x-2)^2}{17}+\frac{(y+\tfrac12)^2}{17/4}=1 \] Ellipse with \(a^2=17,\; b^2=\tfrac{17}{4}\Rightarrow e=\sqrt{1-\frac{b^2}{a^2}}=\sqrt{1-\tfrac14}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}. \)

(B) \(5x^2+9y^2=45 \Rightarrow \frac{x^2}{9}+\frac{y^2}{5}=1\). Here \(a=\sqrt{9}=3,\; b=\sqrt{5}\). Latus rectum length (ellipse) \(= \dfrac{2b^2}{a}=\dfrac{2\cdot5}{3}=\dfrac{10}{3}.\)

(C) Tangent: \(x+y=a \Rightarrow y=-x+a\). Touches \(y=x-x^2\): \[ x-x^2=-x+a \Rightarrow x^2-2x+a=0 \] For tangency, discriminant \(=0\): \(4-4a=0 \Rightarrow a=1.\)

(D) \(3x^2-y^2=4 \Rightarrow \dfrac{x^2}{4/3}-\dfrac{y^2}{4}=1\). Hyperbola with \(a^2=\tfrac{4}{3},\, b^2=4\). \[ e=\sqrt{1+\frac{b^2}{a^2}}=\sqrt{1+\frac{4}{4/3}}=\sqrt{1+3}=2. \]
