A geometry student wants to draw a rectangle inscribed in the ellipse x² + 4y2 = 49. What is the area of the largest rectangle that the student can draw?

Maximum area = 2ab

from ellipse eqn

x^2 + 4y^2 = 49

(x+4y)^2= 49

underoot both sides

x + 4y = 7 ---eqn1

from

(ab)^2 = (ax + by)^2

ab= ax + by

compare to eqn1

ab=7

then, area of the largest triangle will be 14 units.

i hope it's ryt

the answer is d. (1.2, -4.7) on edgn

hope this !
