Statement-1: The locus of the point of intersection of the tangents that are at right angles to the hyperbola $\frac{x^{2}}{36} - \frac{y^{2}}{16} = 1 is the circle x^{2} + y^{2} = 52$

Statement-2: Perpendicular tangents to the hyperbola $\frac{x^{2}}{a^{2}} - \frac{y^{2}}{b^{2}} = 1$ interest on the director circle $x^{2} + y^{2} = a^{2} - b^{2} (a^{2} > b^{2})$ of the hyperbola.

Detailed Solution

Equation of a tangent to the hyperbola is $y = m x$ + $\sqrt{a^{2} m^{2} - b^{2}}$ and the equation of the tangent perpendicular to it is $y = - \frac{1}{m} x + \sqrt{\frac{a^{2}}{m^{2}} - b^{2}}$ .
