If the two tangents drawn on hyperbola
= 1 in such a way that the product of their gradients is c 2 , then they intersects on the curve
a) y 2 + b 2 = c 2 (x 2 – a 2 )
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
Let (h,k) be the point of intersection. By SS 1 = T 2 ,

⇒ ⇒ x 2
+ ..... = 0
We know that m 1 m 2 = 
⇒ ⇒ m 1 m 2 =
= c 2 ⇒ ⇒
= c
2 or (y 2 + b 2 = c 2 (x 2 – a 2 )
