Q67.Consider a hyperbola H : x2 −2y2 = 4 . Let the tangent at a point P(4, √6) meet the rectum at R(x1, y1), x1 > 0 . If F is a focus of H which is nearer to the point P , then the area of ΔQFR (in sq. units) is equal to (1) 4√6 (2) √6 −1 (3) 7 −2 (4) 4√6 −1 √6

What This Question Tests

This question tests the ability to find the equation of a tangent, intersect it with the latus rectum, identify the focus of a hyperbola, and calculate the area of a triangle formed by these points.

Concepts Tested

Formulas Used

xx_1/a^2 - yy_1/b^2 = 1

x = ae

Area = 1/2 * |x1(y2-y3) + x2(y3-y1) + x3(y1-y2)|
