Q43 / 90 · JEE Main 2022 (26 Jun Shift 2) · Mathematics

The normal to the hyperbola x2a2-y29=1 at the point 8,33 on it passes through the point

  • A
    15,-23
  • B
    9,23
  • Correct answer
    C
    -1,93
  • D
    -1,63

Solution

Given,

hyperbola: x2a2-y29=1

it passes through 8,33

∵64a2-279=1⇒a2=16

Now, equation of normal to hyperbola in point form

∵16x8+9y33=16+9

⇒2x+3y=25

-1,93 satisfies the equation.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
