Question 7 The equation of normal to the curve 3x2 – y2 = 8 which is parallel to the line x + 3y = 8 is (A) 3x – y = 8 (B) 3x + y + 8 = 0 (C) x + 3y ± 8 = 0 (D) x + 3y = 0 Since, the normal to the curve is parallel to the line š‘„+3š‘¦=8 ∓ Slope of normal = Slope of line So, finding slope of normal and slope of line Finding slope of normal "3" š‘„"2 –" š‘¦"2 = 8" Differentiating w.r.t. x 6š‘„ āˆ’ 2š‘¦ š‘‘š‘¦/š‘‘š‘„ = 0 2š‘¦ š‘‘š‘¦/š‘‘š‘„ = 6š‘„ š‘‘š‘¦/š‘‘š‘„ =(6š‘„ )/2š‘¦ š‘‘š‘¦/š‘‘š‘„ =3š‘„/š‘¦ Slope of normal =(āˆ’1)/(š‘‘š‘¦/š‘‘š‘„) =(āˆ’1)/(3š‘„/š‘¦) =(āˆ’š’š)/šŸ‘š’™ Finding slope of line š‘„+3š‘¦=8 Differentiating w.r.t. x 1+3 š‘‘š‘¦/š‘‘š‘„ = 0 š‘‘š‘¦/š‘‘š‘„ = (āˆ’1)/3 Slope of line =š‘‘š‘¦/š‘‘š‘„ =(āˆ’šŸ)/šŸ‘ ∓ Equating (1) & (2) (āˆ’š’š)/šŸ‘š’™ = (āˆ’šŸ)/šŸ‘ āˆ’3š‘¦=āˆ’3š‘„ š’š=š’™ Now, to find equation of normal, we need a point So, Putting š’š=š’™ in the curve 3š‘¦^2āˆ’š‘„^2=8 3š‘„^2āˆ’š‘„^2=8 2š‘„^2 = 8 š‘„^2 = 8/2 š‘„^2 = 4 š’™=Ā±šŸ For y-coordinates, putting value of š‘„ in y=š‘„ Finding equation of normal Equation of line at (š‘„_1, š‘¦_1) & having slope m is (š‘¦āˆ’š‘¦_1 ) = m (š‘„āˆ’š‘„_1 ) For š’™ = 2 š‘¦=š‘„ š‘¦=2 So, the point is (2, 2) For š’™ = āˆ’2 š‘¦=š‘„ š‘¦=āˆ’2 So, the point is (āˆ’2, āˆ’2) Equation of normal at (2, 2) & Slope (āˆ’šŸ)/šŸ‘ (š‘¦āˆ’2) = (āˆ’1)/3 (š‘„āˆ’2) 3 (š‘¦āˆ’2) = āˆ’1 (š‘„āˆ’2) 3š‘¦āˆ’6=āˆ’š‘„+2 3š‘¦+š‘„=6+2 3š‘¦+š‘„=8 šŸ‘š’š+š’™āˆ’šŸ–=šŸŽ Equation of normal at (āˆ’2, āˆ’2) & Slope (āˆ’šŸ)/šŸ‘ (š‘¦+2) = (āˆ’1)/3 (š‘„+2) 3 (š‘¦+2) = āˆ’1 (š‘„+2) 3š‘¦+6=āˆ’š‘„āˆ’2 3š‘¦+š‘„=āˆ’6āˆ’2 3š‘¦+š‘„=āˆ’8 šŸ‘š’š+š’™+šŸ–=šŸŽ Hence, the required equation of normal is 3y + š’™ ± 8 = 0 So, the correct answer is (C)
