MCQ
Locus of the middle points of the parallel chords with gradient $m$ of the rectangular hyperbola $xy = c^2 $ is
  • $y + mx = 0$
  • B
    $y - mx = 0$
  • C
    $my - x = 0$
  • D
    $my + x = 0$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$y + mx = 0$
a
equation of chord with mid point $ (h, k)$  is $\frac{x}{h} + \frac{y}{k}$ $ = 2$  ;

$m = - \frac{k}{h}$ $\Rightarrow$ $ y + mx = 0$
