10-2. Parabola, Ellipse, Hyperbola
normal

If the circle $x^2 + y^2 = a^2$  intersects the hyperbola $xy = c^2 $ in four points $ P(x_1, y_1), Q(x_2, y_2), R(x_3, y_3), S(x_4, y_4), $ then

A

$x_1 + x_2 + x_3 + x_4 = 0$

B

$y_1 + y_2 + y_3 + y_4 = 0$

C

$x_1 x_2 x_3 x_4 = c^4$

D

all of the above  

Solution

solving $xy = c^2$  and $x^2 + y^2 = a^2$
$x^2 +\frac{{{c^4}}}{{{x^2}}}\, = a^2$ 
$x^4- ax^3- a^2x^2 + ax + c^4 = 0$ 
$\Rightarrow$ ${\sum x _i}\, = \,0$;${\sum y _i}\, = \,0$ 
$x_1 x_2 x_3 x_4 = c^4$ $\Rightarrow$ $y_1 y_2 y_3 y_4 = c^4$
