Question 9 The point at which the normal to the curve y = π₯ + 1/π₯, x > 0 is perpendicular to the line 3x β 4y β 7 = 0 is: (a) (2, 5/2) (b) (Β±2"," 5/2) (c) (β1/2 " ," 5/2) (d) (1/2 " ," 5/2)
Finding Slope of Normal
y = x + 1/π₯
Differentiating both sides
ππ¦/ππ₯ = 1 β 1/π₯^2
Now,
Slope of Normal = (βπ)/(π β π/π^π )
Given that
Normal is perpendicular to 3x β 4y = 7
So,
Slope of Normal Γ Slope of Line = β1
(β1)/(1 β 1/π₯^2 ) Γ 3/4 = β1
3/4 = 1 β 1/π₯^2
1 β 1/π₯^2 = 3/4
1 β 3/4 = 1/π₯^2
1/4 = 1/π₯^2
x2 = 4
x = Β± 2
Since x > 0
β΄ x = 2
Finding y when x = 2
y = x + 1/π₯
y = 2 + 1/2
y = π/π
Thus,
Point at which normal is perpendicular to line = (x, y)
= (2, π/π)
So, the correct answer is (a)
