Chords at right angles are drawn through any point p(m) of the ellipse and the line joining their extremitiesmeets the normal in the point Q. Prove that Q is same for all such chords its coordinates being a 3 e 2 cosm/(a 2 +b 2 ) , -a 2 be 2 sinm/((a 2 +b 2 ) . Also prove that the major axis is the bisector of the angle PCQ and locus of Q for different positions of P is the ellipse x 2 /a 2 +y 2 /b 2 = (a 2 -b 2 ) 2 /(a 2 +b 2 ) 2
