MCQ
If $x = \sec \theta - \cos \theta $ and $y = {\sec ^n}\theta - {\cos ^n}\theta $, then
  • $({x^2} + 4){\rm{ }}{\left( {{{dy} \over {dx}}} \right)^2} = {n^2}({y^2} + 4)$
  • B
    $({x^2} + 4){\rm{ }}{\left( {{{dy} \over {dx}}} \right)^2} = {x^2}({y^2} + 4)$
  • C
    $({x^2} + 4){\rm{ }}{\left( {{{dy} \over {dx}}} \right)^2} = ({y^2} + 4)$
  • D
    None of these

Answer

Correct option: A.
$({x^2} + 4){\rm{ }}{\left( {{{dy} \over {dx}}} \right)^2} = {n^2}({y^2} + 4)$
a
(a) $\frac{{dy}}{{dx}} = \frac{{dy/d\theta }}{{dx/d\theta }}$

$ = \frac{{n{{\sec }^n}\theta \tan \theta + n{{\cos }^{n - 1}}\theta \sin \theta }}{{\sec \theta \tan \theta + \sin \theta }}$

$ = \frac{{n({{\sec }^n}\theta + {{\cos }^n}\theta )}}{{\sec \theta + \cos \theta }}$    (Dividing ${N^r}$ and ${D^r}$ by $\tan \theta $)

==> ${\left( {\frac{{dy}}{{dx}}} \right)^2} = \frac{{{n^2}{{({{\sec }^n}\theta + {{\cos }^n}\theta )}^2}}}{{{{(\sec \theta + \cos \theta )}^2}}}$

$ = \frac{{{n^2}[{{({{\sec }^n}\theta - {{\cos }^n}\theta )}^2} + 4{{\sec }^n}\theta {{\cos }^n}\theta ]}}{{{{(\sec \theta - \cos \theta )}^2} + 4\sec \theta .\cos \theta }} = \frac{{{n^2}({y^2} + 4)}}{{{x^2} + 4}}$

==> $({x^2} + 4){\rm{ }}{\left( {\frac{{dy}}{{dx}}} \right)^2} = {n^2}({y^2} + 4)$.
