Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(54\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(2 \operatorname{Tan}^{-1}\left(\frac{b}{a}\right) = 2 \operatorname{Tan}^{-1}\left(\frac{2}{3}\right) \implies \frac{b}{a} = \frac{2}{3}\) \(b = \frac{2}{3}a\) \(a^2 - b^2 = 45 \implies a^2 - \left(\frac{2}{3}a\right)^2 = 45\)…
