10-2. Parabola, Ellipse, Hyperbola
normal
Locus of the middle points of the parallel chords with gradient $m$ of the rectangular hyperbola $xy = c^2 $ is
A
$y + mx = 0$
B
$y - mx = 0$
C
$my - x = 0$
D
$my + x = 0$
Solution
equation of chord with mid point $ (h, k)$ is $\frac{x}{h} + \frac{y}{k}$ $ = 2$ ;
$m = – \frac{k}{h}$ $\Rightarrow$ $ y + mx = 0$
