To find the eccentricity of the hyperbola given the point P(6, 3) and the condition that the normal at this point intersects the x-axis at (9, 0), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write the equation of the normal at point P(6, 3) The equation of the normal to the hyperbola at a point \((x_0, y_0)\) is given by: \[ \frac{a^2 x}{x_0} + \frac{b^2 y}{y_0} = a^2 + b^2 \] Substituting \(x_0 = 6\) and \(y_0 = 3\): ...
