    Coordinate of the vertices B and C of a triangle ABC are (2, 0) and (8, 0) respectively. The vertex A is varying in such a way that \[4\,\,\tan \,\,\frac{B}{2}\,\,\tan \,\,\frac{C}{2}=1.\]The locus of A is -

    A) \[\frac{{{(x-5)}^{2}}}{25}+\frac{{{y}^{2}}}{16}=1\]

    B) \[\frac{{{(x-5)}^{2}}}{16}+\frac{{{y}^{2}}}{25}=1\]

    C) \[\frac{{{(x-5)}^{2}}}{25}+\frac{{{y}^{2}}}{9}=1\]

    D) \[\frac{{{(x-5)}^{2}}}{9}+\frac{{{y}^{2}}}{25}=1\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    \[4\tan \frac{B}{2}\tan \frac{C}{2}=1\]
    \[\frac{s-a}{s}=\frac{1}{4}\]
    Solve it \[b+c=10\]
    Focus \[{{F}_{1}}\,\,(2,0)\] and \[{{F}_{2}}\,\,(8,0)\] and \[2a=10;\]
    \[2ae=6;\] \[e=3/5;\] \[b=4\]
    \[\frac{{{(x-5)}^{n}}}{25}+\frac{{{y}^{2}}}{16}=1\]
