the angle betweeen asymtodes = 2 tan-1(b/a)
 
how does this come-----
 
the asymts. are x/a + y/b = 0 and x/a - y/b =0
 
my method :: tan  = | (m2 - m1) / 1 + m1 m2 |
 
=> m1 = -b/a and m2 = b/a
 
putting this in the above equation we are getting different result !!!
please help ! somebody and anybody !

m1= b/a and m2= -b/a
So tanQ=(m1-m2)/(1+m1m2)
tanQ=((b/a)+(b/a))/(1-(b/a)2)
tanQ=2(b/a)/(1-(b/a)2)
or Q=tan-12(b/a)/(1-(b/a)2)
ie Q=2tan-1(b/a)
Because 2tan-1x=tan-1(2x/(1-x2))

friend.. i had one more doubt..............
that formula is v alid only when x belongs to (-1,1)
here is it necassary that b/a is in that range ??

m1 = -b/a    and    m2 = b/a

tan  = | (m2 - m1) / 1 + m1 m2 |

 
= tan-1[{(b/a) - (-b/a)}/{1 + (b/a)(-b/a)}]

    = tan-1{(2b/a)/(1 - b2/a2)}

    = 2tan-1(b/a)

tan-1x+tan-1y=tan-1((x+y)/(1-xy)) when x>=0,y>=0 and xy<1
When xy>1 tan-1x+tan-1y=pi+tan-1((x+y)/(1-xy))
Here tanQ=|2(b/a)/(1-(b/a)2)|
So whether (b/a)is less than 1 or greater than 1 there will be no difference because we consider the positive value.
So tanQ will always be positive.
So that condition is not required.
 
You can also prove this analytically by drawing the hyperbola and its asymptotes.
