The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the point at which the line \( 4\sqrt{2}x - 5y = 40 \) touches the hyperbola \( \frac{x^2}{100} - \frac{y^2}{64} = 1 \). ### Step 1: Identify the parameters of the hyperbola The hyperbola is given in the standard form \( \frac{x^2}{a^2} - \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1 \). From the equation, we can identify: - \( a^2 = 100 \) which gives \( a = 10 \) - \( b^2 = 64 \) which gives \( b = 8 \) ### Step 2: Write the equation of the tangent to the hyperbola The equation of the tangent to the hyperbola at a point \( (x_1, y_1) \) is given by: \[ \frac{x x_1}{a^2} - \frac{y y_1}{b^2} = 1 \] Substituting \( a^2 \) and \( b^2 \): \[ \frac{x x_1}{100} - \frac{y y_1}{64} = 1 \] ### Step 3: Rewrite the line equation The line equation can be rewritten in slope-intercept form: \[ 5y = 4\sqrt{2}x - 40 \implies y = \frac{4\sqrt{2}}{5}x - 8 \] The slope of the line is \( \frac{4\sqrt{2}}{5} \). ### Step 4: Find the slope of the tangent line The slope of the tangent line at the point \( (x_1, y_1) \) on the hyperbola can also be expressed in terms of \( \theta \): \[ \text{slope} = \frac{b}{a} \cdot \frac{dx}{dy} = \frac{8 \sec \theta}{10 \tan \theta} \] This simplifies to: \[ \frac{4}{5} \cdot \frac{\sec \theta}{\tan \theta} = \frac{4}{5} \cdot \frac{1}{\sin \theta} \] ### Step 5: Set the slopes equal Equating the slopes from the line and the hyperbola gives us: \[ \frac{4\sqrt{2}}{5} = \frac{4}{5} \cdot \frac{1}{\sin \theta} \] This implies: \[ \sin \theta = \sqrt{2} \] Since \( \sin \theta \) cannot exceed 1, we need to find \( \theta \) such that: \[ \cos \theta = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \implies \theta = 45^\circ \] ### Step 6: Find the coordinates of the point of tangency Using \( \theta = 45^\circ \): \[ x_1 = a \sec \theta = 10 \cdot \sqrt{2} = 10\sqrt{2} \] \[ y_1 = b \tan \theta = 8 \cdot 1 = 8 \] ### Final Answer The point at which the line touches the hyperbola is: \[ (10\sqrt{2}, 8) \]
