Question

A point on the ellipse $$\frac{{{x^2}}}{6} + \frac{{{y^2}}}{2} = 1$$   at a distance $$2$$ from the centre of the ellipse has the eccentric angle :

A. $$\frac{\pi }{4}$$  
B. $$\frac{\pi }{3}$$
C. $$\frac{\pi }{6}$$
D. $$\frac{\pi }{2}$$
Answer :   $$\frac{\pi }{4}$$
Solution :
Any point on the ellipse $$ = \left( {\sqrt 6 \cos \,\phi ,\,\sqrt 2 \sin \,\phi } \right).$$     So, $${\left( {\sqrt 6 \cos \,\phi - 0} \right)^2} + {\left( {\sqrt 2 \sin \,\phi - 0} \right)^2} = 4\,\,\, \Rightarrow \cos \,\phi = \pm \frac{1}{{\sqrt 2 }}$$
