Q.

Let C1  be the graph of xy = 1 and the reflection of C1  in the line

 y = 2x is C2 . 

If the equation of  C2 is expressed as 

12x2+bxy+cy2+d=0 , then bc =

Any point on hyperbola xy = 1 (t, 1/t)
Now image of (t, 1/t) by the mirror y = 2x is
xt2=y1/t1=2(2t1/t5)

5x=4t3t and 5y=4t+3t

Now eliminating t from above two equations we get,

12x212y27xy+25=0

bc=(7)(12)=84
