Detailed Solution

We know that area of the triangle formed by any tangent to the hyperbola x2a2-y2b2=1  and its asymptotes is 'ab' square units  Required area =ab=4×3=12 (or) x216-y29=1 equations of asymptotes are 3x+4y=0       3x-4y=0       Equation of tangent at P(θ) is x4secθ-y3tanθ=1        vertices of triangle are

0=(0, 0), A=4secθ+tanθ, -3secθ+tanθ  and B=4secθ-tanθ, 3secθ-tanθ  Area=124secθ+tanθ 3secθ-tanθ-4secθ-tanθ -3secθ+tanθ               =1212sec2θ-tan2θ+12sec2θ -tan2θ               =1224               =12
