Detailed Solution

(-6.5)
Let coordinate at point of intersection of normals at P and Q be (h,k)
Eq. of normal to the hyperbola  x232y222=1  at point   P(3secθ,2tanθ)  is   3xcosθ+2ycotθ=32+22.........(1)
Similarly, equation of normal to the hyperbola  x232y222  at point  Q(3secϕ,2tanϕ)  is  3xcosϕ+2ycotϕ=32+22..........(2)
 
Given  θ+ϕ=π2ϕ=π2θ  and these passes through  (h,k)
 3hsinθ+2ktanθ=32+22...............(3)
And  3hcosθ+2kcotθ=32+22.............(4)
Solving (3) and (4), we get
K=39(cosθsinθ)6(cosθsinθ)
Hence, ordinate of point intersection of normals at P and Q is  132
