Equation of the chord joining any two points on an ellipse
If P(a cos θ, b sin θ) and Q( a cos ф,b sin ф) be any two points of the ellipse x²/a² + y²/b² = 1, then equation of chord joining P and Q is of the form
(y-y1) = m(x-x1) which is going to be
(y – b sin θ) = [(b sin ф - b sin θ)/( a cos ф - a cos θ)]*(x – a cos θ)
The equation can also be expressed as
(x/a)* cos [(θ+ ф)/2] +(y/b)*sin [(θ+ ф)/2] = cos [(θ- ф)/2]

(x/a)* cos [(θ+ ф)/2] +(y/b)*sin [(θ+ ф)/2] = cos [(θ- ф)/2]
Condition of a line to be a tangent to an ellipse
The condition for the line y = mx+c to be a tangent to the ellipse x²/a² + y²/b² = 1 is that c² = a²m²+b² or c = ±√( a²m²+b²)
