Hello, mathe25!

Don't you have a SPACE BAR on your keyboard?
Do you ever PREVIEW your stuff before you post it?
Besides, there is something serious wrong with the problem . . .

Through the point (2,7) of the ellipse x² + 4y² = 100, a tangent drawn to it.
Find the area of the triangle that is defined by the coordinate axes and the tangent.

First of all, the point (2,7) is not on the ellipse.

Perhaps the ellipse is: .x² + 4y² .= .200
