The correct answer is: 1.25

We have,

x2+4y2=5

x25+y254=1

Tangent at P1,1 to the ellipse is

x+4y=5
Required Area

=155-x4-5-x22dx

=5x4-x28-x45-x2-54sin-1x515

=554-58-54·π2-54+18+12+54sin-115

=554-54-54·π2+54π2-cos-115

=554-54-5π8+5π8-54cos-115

=545-54-54cos-115

So,

α=54, β=-54 & γ=-54

α+β+γ=1.25
