Let the line $y-x=1$ intersect the ellipse $\frac{x^{2}}{2}+\frac{y^{2}}{1}=1$ at the points $A$ and $B$. Then the angle subtended by the line segment $AB$ at the center of the ellipse is:

$A$ chord $PQ$ of the ellipse $\frac{x^2}{9} + \frac{y^2}{4} = 1$ subtends a right angle at its centre. The locus of the point of intersection of tangents drawn at $P$ and $Q$ is-

Assertion $(A)$: The image of $\frac{x^2}{25}+\frac{y^2}{16}=1$ in the line $x+y=10$ is $\frac{(x-10)^2}{16}+\frac{(y-10)^2}{25}=1$.
Reason $(R)$: The image of a curve '$C$' in a line $L$ is the locus of the image of every point of $C$ with respect to the line $L$.
The correct option among the following is:

The least intercept made by a tangent to the ellipse $\frac{x^2}{64}+\frac{y^2}{49}=1$ with the coordinate axes is
