Question Number 45608 by peter frank last updated on 14/Oct/18

Answered by tanmay.chaudhury50@gmail.com last updated on 14/Oct/18

p(α,β)  Q(a,b)   pointR devides PQ 2:1  R(((2a+α)/3),((2b+β)/3))=(h,k) say  ((2a+α)/3)=h   α=3h−2a      ((2b+β)/3)=k     β=3k−2b  since α,β  lies o n hyperbola (x^2 /a^2 )−(y^2 /b^2 )=1  so (α^2 /a^2 )−(β^2 /b^2 )=1  caution here co−ordinate of point Q is given  (a,b) wheras in hyperbola eqn already  a,b  exists...so pls check whether they are identical  ...  (((3h−2a)^2 )/a^2 )−(((3k−2b)^2 )/b^2 )=1  so the required locus is  (((3x−2a)^2 )/a^2 )−(((3y−2b)^2 )/b^2 )=1   pls check...
