JEE Mains · Maths · STD 11 - 10.2 parabola,ellipse,hyperbola
Let \(P\) be the point of intersection of the common tangents to the parabola \(y^2 = 12x\) and the hyperbola \(8x^2 -y^2 = 8\). If \(S\) and \(S'\) denote the foci of the hyperbola where \(S\) lies on the positive \(x-\) axis then \(P\) divides \(SS'\) in a ratio
- A \(2 : 1\)
- B \(13 : 11\)
- C \(5 : 4\)
- D \(14 : 13\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(5 : 4\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Tangents \({y^2} = 12x \Rightarrow y = 2x + \frac{3}{m}\) \(\frac{{{x^2}}}{1} - \frac{{{y^2}}}{8} = 1 \Rightarrow y = mx \pm \sqrt {{m^2} - 8} \) Common tangent given…
