Form the differential equation of the family of curves represented by the equation (a being the parameter):
i. (2x + a)2 + y2 = a2
ii. (2x – a)2 – y2 = a2
iii. (x – a)2 + 2y2 = a2
(i)
(2 x + a)2 + y2 = a2
On differentiating, with respect to x we have,
Putting this value of a in the given equation we get,
ii. (2 x – a)2 – y2 = a2
⇒ 4x2 + a2 – 4ax – y2 = a2
⇒ 4x2 – 4ax – y2 = 0
⇒ 4ax = 4x2 – y2
On differentiating with respect to x we get,
iii. (x – a)2 + 2 y2 = a2
On differentiating, with respect to x we have,
Putting this value of a in the given equation we get,
