Q67.The locus of the midpoints of the chord of the circle, x2 + y2 = 25 which is tangent to the hyperbola, x2 is : 9 −y216 = 1 (1) (x2 + y2)2 −16x2 + 9y2 = 0 (2) (x2 + y2)2 −9x2 + 144y2 = 0 2 2 (3) (x2 + y2) −9x2 −16y2 = 0 (4) (x2 + y2) −9x2 + 16y2 = 0

What This Question Tests

This question combines concepts from circles and hyperbolas, requiring the student to find the locus of a midpoint of a chord that is simultaneously tangent to a hyperbola.

Concepts Tested

Equation of chord with given midpointEquation of tangent to hyperbolaLocus problems

Formulas Used

T = S1 (for chord with midpoint)

y = mx +/- sqrt(a^2m^2 - b^2) (tangent to hyperbola x^2/a^2 - y^2/b^2 = 1)
