Vedclass · Answer

(A) Let the curves be $C_1: ax^2 + by^2 = 1$ and $C_2: a'x^2 + b'y^2 = 1$.Differentiating $C_1$ with respect to $x$,we get $2ax + 2by \frac{dy}{dx} = 0$,so $\frac{dy}{dx} = -\frac{ax}{by}$.Differentiating $C_2$ with respect to $x$,we get $2a'x + 2b'y \frac{dy}{dx} = 0$,so $\frac{dy}{dx} = -\frac{a'x}{b'y}$.For orthogonal intersection,the product of the slopes at the point of intersection $(x, y)$ must be $-1$:$(-\frac{ax}{by}) 	imes (-\frac{a'x}{b'y}) = -1$$\frac{aa'x^2}{bb'y^2} = -1$Subtracting the two original equations: $(a - a')x^2 + (b - b')y^2 = 0$,which gives $\frac{x^2}{y^2} = -\frac{b - b'}{a - a'} = \frac{b' - b}{a - a'}$.Substituting this into the product condition:$\frac{aa'}{bb'} 	imes \frac{b' - b}{a - a'} = -1$$aa'(b' - b) = -bb'(a - a')$$aa'b' - aa'b = -bba' + bb'a$$aa'b' - bb'a = aa'b - bba'$Dividing by $aa'bb'$:$\frac{1}{b} - \frac{1}{b'} = \frac{1}{a'} - \frac{1}{a}$Rearranging gives $\frac{1}{a} - \frac{1}{a'} = \frac{1}{b'} - \frac{1}{b}$,which is equivalent to $\frac{1}{a} - \frac{1}{a'} = \frac{1}{b} - \frac{1}{b'}$.
