26. A man wants to cut three lengths from a single piece of board of length 91cm.The second length is to be 3cm longer than the shortest and the third length is to be twice as long as the shortest. What are the possible lengths of the shortest board if the third piece is to be at least 5cm longer than the second?

[Hint: If x is the length of the shortest board, then x , (x + 3) and 2x are the lengths of the second and third piece, respectively. Thus, x + (x + 3) + 2x ≤ 91 and2x ≥ (x + 3) + 5].

    26. Let ‘x’ cm be the length of the shortest piece.

    Then, the two other remaining length is.

    (x + 3) cm and (2x). cm.

    So, given that,

    2x - (x + 3) ≥ 5 cm.

    2x- x - 3 ≥ 5.

    x ≥ 5 + 3

    x ≥ 8.

    And. total length ≤ 91 cm

    x + (x + 3) + 2x ≤ 91

    4x + 3 ≤ 91

    4x + 3 ≤ 91 - 3

    x884

    x ≤ 22.

    ? 8 ≤ x ≤ 22.

    Hence the length of the shortest board is greater than or equal to 8 cm and less than or equal to 22 cm.

Let y = mx + c is the common tangent

soc=1m=±321+m2m2=13

so equation of common tangents will be

y=±13x±3

which intersects at Q (3, 0)

Major axis and minor axis of ellipse are 12 and 6. So eccentricity

e2=114=34

and length of latus rectum

=2b2a=3

Hence

le2=33/4=4
