Let for two distinct values of p the lines y = x + p touch the ellipse E : \(\frac{{\mathrm{x}}^{2}}{{4}^{2}}+\frac{{\mathrm{y}}^{2}}{{3}^{2}}=1\) at the points A and B. Let the line y = x intersect E at the points C and D . Then the area of the quadrilateral ABCD is equal to

\(24\)
\(\left(\frac{∓\text{ }{a}^{2}m}{\sqrt{{a}^{2}\text{ }{m}^{2}+{b}^{2}}},\text{ }\frac{\pm {b}^{2}}{\sqrt{{a}^{2}\text{ }{m}^{2}+{b}^{2}}}\right)\)
\(A\left(\frac{−16}{5},\text{ }\frac{9}{5}\right)\text{ }B\left(\frac{16}{5},\text{ }\frac{−9}{5}\right)\)
Point D is \(\left(\frac{12}{5},\text{ }\frac{12}{5}\right)\)
Area of \(ABD=\text{ }\frac{1}{2}\text{ }\left|\begin{matrix}-\frac{16}{5} & \frac{9}{5} & 1 \\ \frac{16}{5} & \frac{-9}{5} & 1 \\ \frac{12}{5} & \frac{12}{5} & 1\end{matrix}\right|\)
= 12
Area of ABCD is 24
