I was practising some ques on ellipses when I came a criss this question:
If normal at four points $(x_1,y_1)$..... on the ellipse $\dfrac{x^2}{a^2}+\dfrac{y^2}{b^2}=1$ are concurrent then find the value of $$(x_1+x_2+x_3+x_4)\left(\frac{1}{x_1}+\frac{1}{x_2}+\frac{1}{x_3}+\frac{1}{x_4}\right)...
In mathematics, an ellipse is a curve on a plane surrounding two focal points such that the sum of the distances to the two focal points is constant for every point on the curve. As such, it is a generalization of a circle, which is a special type of an ellipse that has both focal points at the same location. The shape of an ellipse (how 'elongated' it is) is represented by its eccentricity, which for an ellipse can be any number from 0 (the limiting case of a circle) to arbitrarily close to but less than 1.
Ellipses are the closed type of conic section: a plane curve that results from the ...
I found this reaction over here:
which illustrates the carbonyl test but looks fuzzy.
Assuming that the R in the product is a typo for H, I couldn't conserve the number of Nitrogen atoms.
What is the correct reaction?
Is this correct?
Is there a possibility of a methyl substitution ...
I don't really see the origin of this statement :'(, can not understand where you got it from. What was your initial question "If the normals at four points $(x_i,y_i)$ on the ellipse are concurrent then value of $x_1+x_2+x_3+x_4$ $(1/x_1 +1/x_2$ etc?
@user223679 , the methyl was probably biggest typo
The reason for this is that, this room has been converted into a discussion room while it was meant to be a continuation of the comments of the original answer to ADG's question. @Mann
@Mann There are few messages left to shift, the ones of Dinesh. Shift them here. I tidied up the other room in case someone goes there, and make me the owner over here too ;)
Okay. Go to [access] tab. You are currently on [general].

Before addressing my issues, below is the question from a past examination paper along with a diagram I dre in order to facilitate readers.
3(a) A circle has center $C(5, 8)$ and radius $\sqrt{29}$
(ii) The circle cuts the y-axis at $R$ and $Q$, where $Q$ is above $R$. Find the coordin...
