Solution :<\/h2>\n

\\(\\because\\) Equation of ellipse is \\(9x^2 + 16y^2\\) = 144 or \\(x^2\\over 16\\) + \\({(y-3)}^2\\over 9\\) = 1<\/p>\n

comparing this with \\(x^2\\over a^2\\) + \\(y^2\\over b^2\\) = 1 then we get \\(a^2\\) = 16 and \\(b^2\\) = 9<\/p>\n

and comparing the line y = x + k with y = mx + c ; m = 1 and c = k<\/p>\n

If the line y = x + k touches the ellipse \\(9x^2 + 16y^2\\) = 144, then \\(c^2\\) = \\(a^2m^2 + b^2\\)<\/p>\n

\\(\\implies\\) \\(k^2\\) = 16 \\(\\times\\) \\(1^2\\) + 9 \\(\\implies\\) \\(k^2\\) = 25<\/p>\n

\\(\\therefore\\)\u00a0 k = \\(\\pm\\)5<\/p>\n
