If values of a, for which the line `y=ax+2sqrt(5)` touches the hyperbola `16x^2-9y^2 = 144` are the roots of the equation `x^2-(a_1+b_1)x-4=0`, then the values of `a_1+b_1` isA. 2B. 4C. zeroD. none of these |

Answer» Correct Answer - C The equation of the hyperbola is `(x^(2))/(9)-(y^(2))/(16)=1` The equation of the tangent is `y=mx+sqrt(9x^(2)-16)` `"or sqrt(9m^(2)-16)=2sqrt5` `"or "m= pm2` or a + b = sum of roots = 0 |
