If the tangent to y2 = 4ax at the point (at2, 2at) where t > 1 is a normal to x2 - y2 = a2 at the point (a secθ, a tanθ), then

  • t = - cscθ

  • t = - secθ

  • t = 2tanθ

  • t = 2cotθ


A.

t = - cscθ

C.

t = 2tanθ

Equation of tangent to y= 4ax at (at2, 2at) will be,

x - yt = - at2       ...(i)

Also, equation of normal to x- y2 = - a2 at asecθ, atanθ will be,

xasec(θ) + yatanθ = 2

 x + y cscθ = 2asecθ      ...(ii)

Since, Eqs. (i) and (ii) are identical.

 t = - cscθ or t = 2tanθ
