find the angle of intersection between the curve x^2-y^2=a^2 and x^2+y^2=a^2 (sqr rtof 2)?pls help me
\[} find the \angle of intersection \between the curve x^{2}-y^{2}=a^{2} and x^{2}+y^{2=a^{2}\]
solution: i got slope m1= dy/dx=x/y and slope m2=dy/dx= (-x/y) and \[\Theta=\tan^{-1}(2xy/y^{2}-x^{2})\]
the points of intersection of the curves are at the \[\pm \sqrt{a}\]
but how do i get ans: \[ \Theta=\tan^{-1}(\pm a^2/-a^{2})\]
i got the dinomtr as -a^{2}
so are you asking about the tangents to the curves at these points... as they are vertical lines \[x = \pm a\]
yep
how do i get the numerator 2xy = pm a^{2}
oops just reread
from the question we have to fine the theta
i got theta = tan^{-1} (2xy/y^{2}-x^{2})
\[\theta = \tan^{-1} (2xy/y^{2}-x^{2}) = \tan^{-1}(\pm a^{2}/-a^{2}\]
i gotthe dinomntr -a^{2} from the question'\[\X^{2}-y^{2}\]\
pls hlp me
how do i get the numeratr \[\ pm a^{2}\]\
\[\x^{2}+Y^{2}=a^{2}sqrt{2}\]\
\[\(x+y)^{2}-2xy= a^{2}sqrt{2}\]\
how to solve aftr ths to get 2xy = \[\pm a^{2}\]\
are these your equations? x^2-y^2=a^2 and x^2+y^2=a^2
no the question s
i don't understand that last line in your question.
x^2-y^2 =a^2 and x^2+y^2=a^2 sqrt{2}
I think you need a nominal value for a... perhaps a = 1
first one is a hyperbola, second one is a circle with slightly bigger radius than the transverse and conjugate axis of the hyperbola. they will intersect at 4 points. and you're looking for the angle in which the tangent lines intersect at these points?
yes sir
because of symmetry, i don't think that would be too hard eh? add those two equations to get rid of the y^2.... what do you get for x?
this s an example sum in my book it s given theta= tan^{-1} (2xy/y^2-x^2)=tan^-1(pm a^2/-a^2)
is x =a sqrt (1+ sqrt2)/sqrt2
sorry man, that thing you just put up don't make sense to me. i was gonna do it with finding the slope of the tangent lines at those intersections and using those slopes to calculate the angle between them.
yes it s to find the angle btween them
i got the slopes m1=x/y and m2=(-x/y)
by substituting in formula theta =tan^{-1} [(m1-m2)/(1-m1m2)] i got tan^{-1}(2xy/y^2-x^2)
sorry formula tan^{-1}[(m1-m2)/1+m1m2]
|dw:1336551318873:dw| i got a different x-coordinate for my intercept
