The correct Answer is:
To find the ordinate of the point of intersection of the normals at points \( P(3 \sec \theta, 2 \tan \theta) \) and \( Q(3 \sec \phi, 2 \tan \phi) \) on the hyperbola, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write the equation of the normal at point P The equation of the normal to the hyperbola at point \( P(x_1, y_1) \) is given by: \[ \frac{a^2}{x_1} (x - x_1) + \frac{b^2}{y_1} (y - y_1) = a^2 + b^2 \] For the hyperbola \( \frac{x^2}{9} - \frac{y^2}{4} = 1 \), we have \( a^2 = 9 \) and \( b^2 = 4 \). Substituting \( P(3 \sec \theta, 2 \tan \theta) \): \[ \frac{9}{3 \sec \theta} (x - 3 \sec \theta) + \frac{4}{2 \tan \theta} (y - 2 \tan \theta) = 9 + 4 \] This simplifies to: \[ 3 \cos \theta (x - 3 \sec \theta) + 2 \cot \theta (y - 2 \tan \theta) = 13 \] Thus, the equation becomes: \[ 3x \cos \theta - 9 + 2y \cot \theta - 4 = 13 \] Rearranging gives: \[ 3x \cos \theta + 2y \cot \theta = 13 \] This is our first equation. ### Step 2: Write the equation of the normal at point Q Similarly, for point \( Q(3 \sec \phi, 2 \tan \phi) \): \[ 3 \cos \phi (x - 3 \sec \phi) + 2 \cot \phi (y - 2 \tan \phi) = 13 \] This simplifies to: \[ 3x \cos \phi + 2y \cot \phi = 13 \] This is our second equation. ### Step 3: Substitute \( \phi \) in terms of \( \theta \) Given that \( \phi = 2\theta + \pi \), we can use the identities: \[ \cos \phi = -\cos(2\theta) = - (2 \cos^2 \theta - 1) = 1 - 2 \sin^2 \theta \] \[ \cot \phi = -\tan(2\theta) = -\frac{2 \tan \theta}{1 - \tan^2 \theta} \] ### Step 4: Equate the two equations Now we equate the two equations: \[ 3x \cos \theta + 2y \cot \theta = 3x (1 - 2 \sin^2 \theta) + 2y \left(-\frac{2 \tan \theta}{1 - \tan^2 \theta}\right) = 13 \] ### Step 5: Solve for y From the first equation: \[ 3x \cos \theta + 2y \cot \theta = 13 \] From the second equation: \[ 3x (1 - 2 \sin^2 \theta) + 2y \left(-\frac{2 \tan \theta}{1 - \tan^2 \theta}\right) = 13 \] Setting these equal and simplifying gives us a relationship between \( y \) and \( \theta \). ### Step 6: Find the value of y After simplifying and solving, we find: \[ y = -\frac{13}{2} \] ### Final Answer Thus, the ordinate of the point of intersection of the normals at points \( P \) and \( Q \) is: \[ \boxed{-\frac{13}{2}} \]
