    The two curves \[{{x}^{3}}-3x{{y}^{2}}+2=0\] and \[3\,{{x}^{2}}y-{{y}^{3}}-2=0\]   AIEEE  Solved  Paper-2002

    A) cut at right angle 

    B)           touch each other

    C) cut at an angle \[\frac{\pi }{3}\] 

    D)          cut at an angle \[\frac{\pi }{4}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Given equations of two curves are                    \[{{x}^{3}}-3x{{y}^{2}}+2=0\]                                      ... (i) and            \[3{{x}^{2}}y\,-{{y}^{2}}-2=0\]                                   ... (ii) On differentiating Eqs. (i) and (ii) w.r.t. x, we get                    \[{{\left( \frac{dy}{dx} \right)}_{{{C}_{1}}}}=\frac{{{x}^{2}}-{{y}^{2}}}{2xy}\] and            \[{{\left( \frac{dy}{dx} \right)}_{{{C}_{2}}}}=\frac{-2xy}{{{x}^{2}}-{{y}^{2}}}\] Now.        \[{{\left( \frac{dy}{dx} \right)}_{{{C}_{1}}}}\times {{\left( \frac{dy}{dx} \right)}_{{{C}_{2}}}}=\left( \frac{{{x}^{2}}-{{y}^{2}}}{2xy} \right)\left( \frac{-2xy}{{{x}^{2}}-{{y}^{2}}} \right)\]                                                    \[=-1\] Hence, the two curves cut at right angle.
