Show that the curve for which the normal at every point passes through a fixed point is a circle.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Let fixed point be `(h, k)`
`y=f(x)`
`frac{dy}{dx}=M_T`
`M_T|_(p(x, y))=frac{dy}{dx}`
`=frac{-dx}{dy}`
Equantion of `N` at `P(x, y)`
`Y-y=-frac{dx}{dy}(X-x)`
`k-y=frac{-dx}{dy}(h-x)` ...
