Detailed Solution

Given hyperbola x2a2-y2b2=1 Let m1,m2 be slopes of two tangents

Now Equations of tangents are y=m1x+a2m1b2;

Question Image

y=m2x+a2m22b2

Since four points are concyclic so four points lie on circle 

sub x=0 and y=0  then we four points

A=(-m1a2-b2m1,0),B=(0,a2m12-b2) and  C=(-m2a2-b2m2,0),D=(0,a2m22-b2) Since four points are concyclic then  OA×OC=OB×OD -m1a2-b2m1×-m2a2-b2m2=a2m12-b2×a2m22-b2 1m1m2=1 m1m2=1
