Constraining Midpoint line on Parametric Centerline

Constraining Midpoint line on Parametric Centerline

Hello, I have here a midpoint line at the end of another sketch line that rotates around the projected ellipse with parametric parameter (the degree angle is the parameter). How do I make it so that the midpoint line is always tangent to the outer ellipse no matter that angle of the sketch line from the center? The screenshot depicts the line constrained perpendicularly, but you can see how this is un-ideal. I was hoping to use the tangent constraint feature but it will not allow me to select the ellipse and the line together.
