Detailed Solution

Given hyperbola s=x2a2y2b2=1
Given tangent lx+my+n=0(1)
Let p(x1,y1) be a point on the hyperbola
Equation of tangent at p(x1,y1) w.r.t to the hyperbola S = 0 is S1 = 0
S1=xx1a2yy1b21=0(2)
Equations (1) and (2) represents same line then
lx1a2=my1b2=n1a2lx1=n,b2my1=nx1=a2ln,y1=b2mn
px1y1=a2ln,b2mnSince px1,y1 lies on equation (1) thenla2ln+mb2mn+n=0a2l2+b2m2+n2n=0a2l2b2m2n2=0a2l2b2m2=n2
