Ex 6.3, 27 (Method 1) The point on the curve š‘„2=2š‘¦ which is nearest to the point (0, 5) is (A) (2 √2 ,4) (B) (2 √2,0) (C) (0, 0) (D) (2, 2) Let (ā„Ž , š‘˜) be the point on the curve š‘„2 = 2š‘¦ Where is nearest to the point (0, 5) Since (ā„Ž, š‘˜) lie on the curve š‘„2= 2š‘¦ ⇒ (ā„Ž š‘˜) will satisfy the equation of curve š‘„2=2š‘¦ ⇒ Putting š‘„=ā„Ž & y=š‘˜ in equation ā„Ž^2=2š‘˜ We need to minimize the distance of a point (ā„Ž ,š‘˜) from(0, 5) Let D be the distant between (ā„Ž,š‘˜) & (0,5) D = √((0āˆ’ā„Ž)^2+(5āˆ’š‘˜)^2 ) D = √(ā„Ž^2+(5āˆ’š‘˜^2 ) ) From (1) ā„Ž^2=2š‘˜ D = √(2š‘˜+(5āˆ’š‘˜)^2 ) Diff w.r.t š‘˜ š‘‘š·/š‘‘š‘˜=š‘‘(√(2š‘˜ + (5 āˆ’ š‘˜)^2 ))/š‘‘š‘˜ =1/(2√(2š‘˜ + (5 āˆ’ š‘˜)^2 )) Ć—š‘‘(2š‘˜ + (5 āˆ’ š‘˜)^2 )/š‘‘š¾ =1/(2√(2š‘˜ + (5 āˆ’ š‘˜)^2 )) Ɨ [2+2(5āˆ’š‘˜).š‘‘(5 āˆ’ š‘˜)/š‘‘š¾] Let D be the distant between (ā„Ž,š‘˜) & (0,5) D = √((0āˆ’ā„Ž)^2+(5āˆ’š‘˜)^2 ) D = √(ā„Ž^2+(5āˆ’š‘˜^2 ) ) From (1) ā„Ž^2=2š‘˜ D = √(2š‘˜+(5āˆ’š‘˜)^2 ) We need to minimize D, but D has a square root Which will be difficult to differentiate Let Z = D2 Z = 2š‘˜+(5āˆ’š‘˜)^2 Since D is positive, D is minimum if d2 is minimum So, we minimize Z = D2 Differentiating Z Z = 2š‘˜+(5āˆ’š‘˜)^2 Diff w.r.t. k Z’ = š‘‘(2š‘˜ + (5 āˆ’ š‘˜)^2 )/š‘‘š‘˜ Z’ = 2 + 2 (5 āˆ’ k) Ɨ (5 āˆ’ k)’ Z’ = 2 + 2 (5 āˆ’ k) Ɨ (0 āˆ’ 1) Z’ = 2 āˆ’ 2 (5 āˆ’ k) Z’ = 2 āˆ’ 10 + 2k Z’ = āˆ’8 + 2k Putting Z’ = 0 āˆ’8 + 2k = 0 2k = 8 k = 8/2 = 4 Now, checking sign of (š‘‘^2 š‘)/(š‘‘ā„Ž^2 ) " " š‘‘š‘/š‘‘š‘˜=āˆ’8+2š‘˜ Differentiating again w.r.t k (š‘‘^2 š‘)/(š‘‘ā„Ž^2 ) = 0+2 (š‘‘^2 š‘)/(š‘‘ā„Ž^2 ) = 2 ∓ (š‘‘^2 š‘)/(š‘‘ā„Ž^2 ) > 0 for k = 4 ∓ Z is minimum when k = 4 Thus, D is Minimum at š‘˜= 4 Finding h From (1) h^2=2š‘˜ h^2=2(4) h=√8 h=2√2 Hence, Required Point is (ā„Ž,š‘˜)=(2√(2 ,) 4) Correct answer is A Ex 6.3, 27 (Method 2) The point on the curve š‘„2= 2š‘¦ which is nearest to the point (0, 5) is (A) (2 √2,4) (B) (2 √2,0) (C) (0, 0) (D) (2, 2)Since points given lie on the curve, it will satisfy equation of curve Option 1 Point is (2√(2 ,) 4) Putting š‘„=2√2 , & š‘¦=4 in š‘„2=2š‘¦ ⇒ (2√2)^2=2(4) ⇒ 4 Ɨ 2 = 8 Which is true Thus, (2√2,4) lie on the curve Now, finding distance between (2√(2 ,) 4" " ) & (0 ,5) D = √((0āˆ’2√(2 ))^2+(5āˆ’4)^2 ) = √(8+1) = √9 = 3 Option 2 Point (2√(2 ,) 0) Putting š‘„=2√2 & š‘¦=0 in š‘„2=2š‘¦ (2√(2 ))^2=2(0) (4 Ɨ2)=0 8 = 0 Since 8 ≠0 ⇒ (2√(2 ,) 0) is not the required point Option 3 Point (0, 0) Putting š‘„=0 & š‘¦=0 in š‘„2=2š‘¦ (0)^2=2(0) 0=0 ∓ (0 , 0) lie on the curve Now, Finding distance between (0, 0) š‘Žš‘›š‘‘ (0 , 5) D = √((0āˆ’0)^2+(5āˆ’0)^2 ) = √(0+5^2 ) = 5 Option 4 Point (2 ,2) Putting š‘„=2 & š‘¦=2 in š‘„2=2š‘¦ (2)^2=2(2) 4=4 ∓ (2, 2) lie on the curve Now, Finding distance between (2, 2) š‘Žš‘›š‘‘ (0 , 5) D = √((0āˆ’2)^2+(5āˆ’2)^2 ) = √((āˆ’2)^2+(3)^2 ) = √(4+9) = √13 Thus, Point (2√2,4) is on the curve š‘„2=2š‘¦ & nearest to the point (0, 5) Hence correct answer is A
