Parametric points of the given hyperbola are (root(24)sec , root(18)tan


distance of this point from the given line is



(3root24sec + 2root18tan + 1 ) / root(13)....let this be f()



so for critical points f'()=0

so f'() = 3root(24/13)tansec + 2root(18/13)sec^2 = 0


((3root24)sin + 2root18) / (root13(cos^2)) = 0



sin = -2root18/3root24 = -1/root3


so point is  (root(24)sec , root(18)tan (6,-3)


 


There is no better feeling in this world than being a winner!
