Given equations : x = 1 7 c o s 3 t and y = 5 s i n 3 t are parametric equations of the curve:
( a 2 x 2 ) 3 1 + ( b 2 y 2 ) 3 1 = 1
∴ A r e a = 4 ( a r e a i n 1 s t q u a d r a n t )
⇒ A r e a = 4 ∫ 2 π 0 ( 5 s i n 3 t ) ( − 3 × 1 7 c o s 2 t . s i n t ) d t
= 1 2 × 1 7 × 5 ∫ 0 2 π s i n 4 t . c o s 2 t d t
On solving further we get:
= 1 0 2 0 . 6 . 4 . 2 3 . 1 . 1 . 2 π = 8 2 5 5 π
⇒ a + b = 2 5 5 + 6 = 2 6 3
