Question

The product of the lengths of perpendicular drawn from any point on the hyperbola x2 – 2y2 – 2 = 0 to its asymptotes is

Solution

Correct option is

2/3

 

We have, 

         

We know that the product of the lengths of perpendicular from any point on the hyperbola  to its asymptotes is

           

Here, a2 = 2 and b2 = 1.    

So, required product, 

          .
