There is one more method to do this question.


 


that is by using the equation of the chord whose mid pt. is given  S1=T


 


let the mid pt be (a,0)


 


Therefore we get     a2-ap=ax -px/2 -ap/2 - qy/2


 


now since pt. (p,q) lies on chord we can satisfy the equation with it


 


a2-ap-ap+p2/2+ap/2+q2/2=0


 


2a2-4ap+p2+ap+q2=0


 


2a2-3ap+(p2+q2)=0


 


 


 


Now,this quadratic shud have two distinct roots as two distinct are bisected by x-axis,hance the discriminant D>0

 


 


 


9p2-8(p2+q2)>0

 


thus we get p2>8q2


 


Plz rate if the soln. was helpful.
