The equation of the normal to the curve \(x=a \cosh (t), y=b \sinh (t)\) at any point \(t\) is

  1. A \(a x+b y=a^2+b^2\)
  2. B \(a x \operatorname{sech}(t)+b y \operatorname{cosech}(t)=a^2+b^2\)
  3. C \(a x \operatorname{sech}(t)-b y \operatorname{cosech}(t)=a^2-b^2\)
  4. D \(\frac{a x}{\sinh (t)}+\frac{b y}{\cosh (t)}=a^2+b^2\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(a x \operatorname{sech}(t)+b y \operatorname{cosech}(t)=a^2+b^2\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given curve, \(x=a \cos \mathrm{h}(t)\) and \(y=b \sin \mathrm{h}(t)\) represents, \(\frac{x^2}{a^2}-\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1\) is a hyperbola and equation of normal at a point ' \(t\) ' is…
