If the chords of contacts of the tangents from the points

x1, y1 and x2, y2 to the hyperbola 2x23y2=6

are at right angle, then 4x1x2+9y1y2 is equal to

a
–1
b
0
c
6
d
–12

detailed solution

Correct option is B

Equation of the chords of contacts are2xx1−3yy1=6,2xx2−3yy2=6Since they are at right angles  2x13y1×2x23y2=−1⇒ 4x1x2+9y1y2=0.
