Equation of the given curve is y2=x3 ...(1)
On differentiating with respect to x 2ydxdy=3x2 ⇒dxdy=2y3x2
Now , (dxdy)(m2,m3)=2m33m4=23m
and (dxdy)(M2,M3)=2M33M4=23M
Equation of tangents at point (m2,m3) is (y−m3)=23m(x−m2) ⇒2y−2m3=3mx−3m3 ⇒3mx−2y=3m3−2m3 ⇒3mx−2y=m3 ....(2)
Equation of normal at point (M2,M3) is (y−M3)=−3M2(x−M2) ⇒3My−3M4=−2x+2M2 ⇒2x+3My=3M4+2M2 .....(3)
Since, equation (2) and (3) are same ⇒23m=3M−2=3M4+2M2m3 ⇒23m=−3M2 ⇒mM=−94
