Answer:

\mathrm{Area = \dfrac{1}{2}\bigg(\dfrac{a^2}{x_1}\bigg)\bigg(\dfrac{a^2}{y_1}\bigg)}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

x² + y² = a² is a circle.

P(x₁, y₁) is a point on the circle through which a tangent is drawn

To find :

The area of the triangle formed with tangent and the coordinate axes

Solution :

Circle equation : x² + y² = a²

We know that, if a point (x₁, y₁) is a point on the circle through which a tangent is drawn, then equation of tangent is x₁x + y₁y = a²

So,

\implies \mathrm{\dfrac{x_1x}{a^2} + \dfrac{y_1y}{a^2} = 1}

\implies \mathrm{\dfrac{x}{\bigg(\dfrac{a^2}{x_1}\bigg)} + \dfrac{y}{\bigg(\dfrac{a^2}{y_1}\bigg)} = 1}

This is of the form \boxed{\mathrm{\dfrac{x}{a} + \dfrac{y}{b} = 1}} [Line - intercept form]

Here a, b are intercepts

We know that,

Area formed by the line intercept form is

\boxed{\mathrm{A = \dfrac{1}{2}|ab|}}

Here,

\mathrm{a = \dfrac{a^2}{x_1} ; b = \dfrac{a^2}{y_1}}

So,

\implies \mathrm{A = \dfrac{1}{2}\bigg(\dfrac{a^2}{x_1}\bigg)\bigg(\dfrac{a^2}{y_1}\bigg)}

\therefore \underline{\boxed{\mathbf{A = \dfrac{1}{2}\bigg(\dfrac{a^4}{x_1y_1}\bigg)}}}

Hope it helps!!
