Let and be the slopes of the tangents drawn from the point to the hyperbola If is the point from which the tangents drawn to have slopes and and they make positive intercepts and on the axis, then is equal to
Correct answer: 8
Solution
Given that
Equation of tangent to the hyperbola is
Passes through
Equation of tangents with slopes &
&
On converting and in intercept form we get,
Hence this is the required option.
Hence, the correct answer is 8.
