Find the equations of the tangent and...

Find the equations of the tangent and the normal to the curve `(x^2)/(a^2)-(y^2)/(b^2)=1` at `(sqrt(2)a ,\ b)` at indicated points.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`(x^{2} / a^{2})-(y^{2} / b^{2})=1`
or `\quad \frac{2 x}{a^{2}}-\frac{2 y}{b^{2}} \frac{d y}{d x}=0`
or `\quad \frac{d y}{d x}=\frac{b^{2} x}{a^{2} y}`
Slope of tangent at `(\sqrt{2} a, b)=\frac{\sqrt{2} b}{a}`

Slope of normal at `(\sqrt{2} a, b)=-\frac{a}{\sqrt{2} b}`

Equation of tangent is
