Detailed Solution
Then curves are x3+y3=8xy …..(1) and y2=4x …..(2) Solving (1) and (2), we get x3+y3=8xy ⇒x3=4xy ⇒x3=4x2x ⇒x3/2(x3/2−8)=0 ⇒x=0 or x=22=4 Now when x=0, we get y=0 And when x=4, we get y2=16 0r y±4. But x=4 and y=−4 do not satisfy (1). Thus (0,0) and (4,4) are the points of intersection of(1) and (2) Differentiating (1) , we get dydx=8y−3x23y2−8x. at(4,4),dydx=−1. Hence, the equation of the normal to the curve (1) at (4,4) is (y−4)=1(x−4)or y−x=0.
