Find the product of lengths of the perpendiculars from any point on the hyperbola x2/16 - y2/9 = 1 to its asymptotes. |
|
Answer» Equation of the hyperbola is x2/16 – y2/9 = 1 a2 = 16, b2 = 9 Product of the perpendiculars from any point as the hyperbola to its asymptotes = a2 b2/a2 + b2 = 16 x 9/16 + 9 = 144/25 |
