Question

a?
b?
Let a and b be positive real numbers such that a > 1 and b < a. Let P be a point in the first
quadrant that lies on the hyperbola
$\frac{ {x}^{2} }{ {a}^{2} } - \frac{ {y}^{2} }{ {b }^{2} } = 1$

1. Suppose the tangent to the hyperbola at P
passes through the point (1, 0), and suppose the normal to the hyperbola at P cuts off equal
intercepts on the coordinate axes. Let A denote the area of the triangle formed by the tangent at
P, the normal at P and the x-axis. If e denotes the eccentricity of the hyperbola, then which of the
following statements is/are TRUE?
