Answer to Problem 12OE

No, a line can intersect an ellipse in a single point without being tangent to it

Explanation of Solution

Given information: Conic is ellipse

Calculation:

Line to intersect an ellipse at a single point without being tangent to the ellipse:

There do no exists any line that intersects ellipse at only one point and line is not tangent to ellipse at the same time

Conclusion:

Hence, no, a line can intersect an ellipse in a single point without being tangent to it
