Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 45

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given Hyperbola x220-3y24=1 and tangents are parallel to the line x+3y=7 So we have a2=20, b2=43, m=-13  ...i We know that equation of tangent of a hyperbola in slope form is given by y=mx±a2m2-b2 Using the Equation i y=-13x±223⇒3y=-x±22…
