Consider the hyperbola H : x2 y2 = 1 and a circle S with center N(x2, 0). Suppose that H and S touch each other at a point P(x1, y1) with x1 > 1 and y1 > 0. The common tangent to H and S at P intersects the x-axis at point M. If (l, m) is the centroid of the triangle PMN, then the correct expression(s) is(are) 1 (B)  12113 1dm xdx x for x1 > 1(C) 21 1113 dldx x for x1 > 1 (D) 113dmdy for y1 > 0 >

Dear Student,
Equation tangent to H at P is xx1-yy1=1
l=(x1+x2+1/x1)/3 and m=y1/3=sqrt(x1^2-1)/3
 
now dy/dx(H) at P =dy/dx(S) at P
=>x1/y1 =(x2-x1)/y1
Therefore, l=x1+1/3x1
so, dl/dx1=1- 1/(3x1^2) , 
dm/dx1=1/3
and dm/dx1 =(1/3)*x1/(sqrt(x1^2-3)) [Ans]
Cheers!!
