S1:x2+y2=9
S2:y2=8x
∴x2+8x−9=0
∴(x+9)(x−1)=0
∴x=1 ....[x=−9 is not a solution because for the parabola x>0]
y2=8x=8
⟹y=±2√2
P≡(1,2√2)
Q≡(1,−2√2)
Tangent to S1=0 at (1,2√2) is T1=0
x+2√2y=9
Tangent to S1=0 at (1,−2√2) is T1=0
x−2√2y=9
They intersects the x-axis at (9,0)
⟹R≡(9,0)
Tangent to S2=0 at (1,2√2) is T2=0
2√2y=4(x+1)
Tangent to S2=0 at (1,−2√2) is T2=0
−2√2y=4(x+1)
They intersects the x-axis at (−1,0)
⟹S≡(−1,0)
Let the line PQ intersect x-axis at M
Co-ordinates of M=(1,0)
A(ΔPQS)A(ΔPQR)=12×PQ×SM12×PQ×RM
=SMRM
=1−(−1)9−1=14
The answer is option (C).
