The number of points on the hyperbola `(x^2)/(a^2)-(y^2)/(b^2)=3`from which mutually perpendicular tangents can be drawn to the circle `x^2+y^2=a^2`is/are0 (b)2 (c) 3(d) 4

Answer» Correct Answer - A
Director circle of the circle `x^(2)+y^(2)=a^(2)" is "x^(2)+y^(2)=2a^(2)`.
The semi-transverse axis is `sqrt3a`.
The radius of the circle is `sqrt2a`.
Hence, director circle and hyperbola do not intersect.
