Vedclass · Answer

Equation of chord of the given circle whose middle point is

$(\mathrm{h}, \mathrm{k})$ is $\mathrm{xh}+\mathrm{yk}=\mathrm{h}^{2}+\mathrm{k}^{2}$

and equation of tangent line

upon hyperbola is $\mathrm{y}-\mathrm{mx}=\sqrt{\mathrm{a}^{2} \mathrm{m}^{2}-\mathrm{b}^{2}}$

As both lines are identical

$\Rightarrow-\frac{m}{h}=\frac{1}{k}=\frac{\sqrt{a^{2} m^{2}-b^{2}}}{h^{2}+k^{2}}$

Eliminating $m$ 

$\Rightarrow\left(\mathrm{h}^{2}+\mathrm{k}^{2}\right)^{2}=\left(\mathrm{a}^{2} \mathrm{h}^{2}-\mathrm{b}^{2} \mathrm{k}^{2}\right)$

hence the locus is $\left(x^{2}+y^{2}\right)^{2}=\left(a^{2} x^{2}-b^{2} y^{2}\right)$
