let (x,y) is a point on hyperbola  y^2 =((3x^2 −72)/4) and closest to line  3x+2y−1=0 , we get the distance  d =((∣3x±2(√((3x^2 −72)/4))−1∣)/( (√(13))))  d = ((∣3x±(√(3x^2 −72))−1∣)/( (√(13))))  we take (d/dx) [ ((3x±(√(3x^2 −72))−1)/( (√(13)))) ]=0  ⇔ 3 ± ((3x)/( (√(3x^2 −72)))) = 0  we get x^2 =36 or x=±6 then  y=±(√((3.36−72)/4))=±(√9) = ± 3  check point  (i) (6,3)⇒d = ((18+6−1)/( (√(13))))=((23)/( (√(13))))  (ii)(6,−3)⇒d=((18−6−1)/( (√(13))))=((11)/( (√(13))))←d_(min)   (iii)(−6,3)⇒d=((∣−18+6−1∣)/( (√(13))))=((17)/( (√(13))))  (iv)(−6,−3)⇒d=((∣−18−6−1∣)/( (√(13))))=((25)/( (√(13))))

3x^2 −4y^2 =72  6x−8y(dy/dx)=0  6x−8y×(−(3/2))=0  ⇒x=−2y  3(−2y)^2 −4y^2 =72  y^2 =9  ⇒y=±3  ⇒x=∓6  ⇒(6,−3) and (−6,3)  (1/( (√(3^2 +2^2 ))))∣3×6+2(−3)−1∣=((11)/( (√(13))))✓  (1/( (√(3^2 +2^2 ))))∣3×(−6)+2×3−1∣=((13)/( (√(13))))  ⇒(6,−3) is closest to 3x+2y−1=0.  and the closest distance is ((11)/( (√(13)))).

$$\mathrm{3}{x}^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{4}{y}^{\mathrm{2}} =\mathrm{72} \\ $$$$\mathrm{6}{x}−\mathrm{8}{y}\frac{{dy}}{{dx}}=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\mathrm{6}{x}−\mathrm{8}{y}×\left(−\frac{\mathrm{3}}{\mathrm{2}}\right)=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{x}=−\mathrm{2}{y} \\ $$$$\mathrm{3}\left(−\mathrm{2}{y}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{4}{y}^{\mathrm{2}} =\mathrm{72} \\ $$$${y}^{\mathrm{2}} =\mathrm{9} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{y}=\pm\mathrm{3} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{x}=\mp\mathrm{6} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\left(\mathrm{6},−\mathrm{3}\right)\:{and}\:\left(−\mathrm{6},\mathrm{3}\right) \\ $$$$\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\:\sqrt{\mathrm{3}^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{2}^{\mathrm{2}} }}\mid\mathrm{3}×\mathrm{6}+\mathrm{2}\left(−\mathrm{3}\right)−\mathrm{1}\mid=\frac{\mathrm{11}}{\:\sqrt{\mathrm{13}}}\checkmark \\ $$$$\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\:\sqrt{\mathrm{3}^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{2}^{\mathrm{2}} }}\mid\mathrm{3}×\left(−\mathrm{6}\right)+\mathrm{2}×\mathrm{3}−\mathrm{1}\mid=\frac{\mathrm{13}}{\:\sqrt{\mathrm{13}}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\left(\mathrm{6},−\mathrm{3}\right)\:{is}\:{closest}\:{to}\:\mathrm{3}{x}+\mathrm{2}{y}−\mathrm{1}=\mathrm{0}. \\ $$$${and}\:{the}\:{closest}\:{distance}\:{is}\:\frac{\mathrm{11}}{\:\sqrt{\mathrm{13}}}. \\ $$
