JEE Mains · Maths · STD 11 - 10.2 parabola,ellipse,hyperbola

Let a line \(L_{1}\) be tangent to the hyperbola \(\frac{x^{2}}{16}-\frac{y^{2}}{4}=1\) and let \(L_{2}\) be the line passing through the origin and perpendicular to \(L _{1}\). If the locus of the point of intersection of \(L_{1}\) and \(L_{2}\) is \(\left(x^{2}+y^{2}\right)^{2}=\) \(\alpha x^{2}+\beta y^{2}\), then \(\alpha+\beta\) is equal to

  1. A \(11\)
  2. B \(12\)
  3. C \(15\)
  4. D \(16\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(12\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\frac{x \sec \theta}{4}-\frac{y \tan \theta}{2}=1\) \(m_{1}=\frac{\sec \theta \times 2}{4(\tan \theta)}=\frac{\sec \theta}{2 \tan \theta}\) \(m_{2}=\frac{k}{h}\) \(m_{1} m_{2}=-1\) \(\frac{ k }{ h } \frac{\sec \theta}{2 \tan \theta}=-1\) \(\frac{ k }{2 h \sin \theta}=-1\)…
