If a variable tangent of the hyperbola $\frac{x ^{2}}{9} - \frac{y ^{2}}{4} = 1$ , cuts the circle $x^{2} + y^{2} = 4$ at point $A, B$ and locus of mid point of $A B$ is $9 x^{2} - 4 y^{2} - λ (x^{2} + y^{2})^{2} = 0$ then $λ$ is ….

Answer:

Solution:

Equation of chord of circle with mid point $(h, k)$ is $xh + xk = h^{2} + k^{2}$ or $y = (\frac{- h}{k}) x + \frac{h ^{2} + k ^{2}}{k}$ , it touches the hyperbola
