Question
The curves and intersect orthogonally, then
Hint:
We are given two curves. They intersect orthogonally. We have to find the relation between the variables.
The correct answer is:
The curves are as follows:
ax2 + by2 = 1 ...(1)
Ax2 + By2 = 1 ...(2)
We will take the derivative of equation (1) w.r.t x.
2ax + 2by=0
2by= -2ax
This is this slope of first curve. We will call it slope1.
In the same way we will take the derivative of equation (2) w.r.t x
2Ax + 2By = 1
We will call it slope2.
The two curves are orthogonal. So, the product of their slope is -1.
Slope1 × Slope2 = -1
We will substitute (3) in (1)
We will substitute (4) in (2)
Divide (5) by (6)
This is the required answer.
.
For such questions, we should be careful while taking the derivative.
