Three points O(0, 0), P(a, a ^ 2 ), Q(- b, b ^ 2 ), a > 0, b > 0,...

Three points O(0,0),P(a,a2),Q(−b,b2),a>0,b>0,O\left(0, 0\right), P\left(a, {a}^{2}\right), Q\left(- b, {b}^{2}\right), a > 0, b > 0, are on the parabola y=x2y = {x}^{2}. Let S1{S}_{1} be the area of the region bounded by the line PQPQ and the parabola, and S2{S}_{2} be the area of the triangle OPQOPQ. If the minimum value of S1S2\dfrac{{S}_{1}}{{S}_{2}} is mn,gcd⁡(m,n)=1,\dfrac{m}{n}, \gcd \left(m, n\right) = 1, then m+nm + n is equal to:

Three points O(0, 0), P(a, a ^ 2 ), Q(- b, b ^ 2 ), a > 0, b > 0, are on the parabola y = x ^ 2 . Let S _ 1 be the area

Correct answer

0

Step-by-step solution

Plotting the diagram of the given data we get,

Three points O(0, 0), P(a, a ^ 2 ), Q(- b, b ^ 2 ), a > 0, b > 0, are on the parabola y = x ^ 2 . Let S _ 1 be the area

Area of △OPQ△ OPQ is given by,

{S}_{2} = \dfrac{1}{2}\left|\begin{cases}0 & 0 & 1 \\ a & {a}^{2} & 1 \\ - b & {b}^{2} & 1\end{cases}\right|

⇒S2=12(ab2+a2b)...(i)⇒ {S}_{2} = \dfrac{1}{2}\left(a{b}^{2} + {a}^{2}b\right) . . . \left(i\right)

Now, equation of line PQ:y−a2=a2−b2a+b(x−a)PQ: y - {a}^{2} = \dfrac{{a}^{2} - {b}^{2}}{a + b}\left(x - a\right)

⇒y−a2=(a−b)x−(a−b)a⇒ y - {a}^{2} = \left(a - b\right)x - \left(a - b\right)a

⇒y=(a−b)x+ab...(ii)⇒ y = \left(a - b\right)x + ab . . . \left(ii\right)

Area bounded by the line PQPQ and the parabola is given by,

S1=∫−ba((a−b)x+ab−x2)dx{S}_{1} = \mathop{∫}_{- b}^{a}\left(\left(a - b\right)x + ab - {x}^{2}\right)dx

⇒S1=[(a−b)x22+(ab)x−x33]−ba⇒ {S}_{1} = {\left[\left(a - b\right)\dfrac{{x}^{2}}{2} + \left(ab\right)x - \dfrac{{x}^{3}}{3}\right]}_{- b}^{a}

⇒S1=(a−b)2(a+b)2+ab(a+b)−(a3+b3)3...(iii)⇒ {S}_{1} = \dfrac{{\left(a - b\right)}^{2}\left(a + b\right)}{2} + ab\left(a + b\right) - \dfrac{\left({a}^{3} + {b}^{3}\right)}{3} . . . \left(iii\right)

⇒S1S2=(a−b)22+ab−(a2+b2−ab)3ab2⇒ \dfrac{{S}_{1}}{{S}_{2}} = \dfrac{\dfrac{{\left(a - b\right)}^{2}}{2} + ab - \dfrac{\left({a}^{2} + {b}^{2} - ab\right)}{3}}{\dfrac{ab}{2}}

⇒S1S2=3(a−b)2+6ab−2(a2+b2−ab)3ab⇒ \dfrac{{S}_{1}}{{S}_{2}} = \dfrac{3{\left(a - b\right)}^{2} + 6ab - 2\left({a}^{2} + {b}^{2} - ab\right)}{3ab}

⇒S1S2=3(a2+b2−2ab)+6ab−2(a2+b2−ab)3ab⇒ \dfrac{{S}_{1}}{{S}_{2}} = \dfrac{3\left({a}^{2} + {b}^{2} - 2ab\right) + 6ab - 2\left({a}^{2} + {b}^{2} - ab\right)}{3ab}

⇒S1S2=3a2+3b2−6ab+6ab−2a2−2b2+2ab3ab⇒ \dfrac{{S}_{1}}{{S}_{2}} = \dfrac{3{a}^{2} + 3{b}^{2} - 6ab + 6ab - 2{a}^{2} - 2{b}^{2} + 2ab}{3ab}

⇒S1S2=a2+b2+2ab3ab⇒ \dfrac{{S}_{1}}{{S}_{2}} = \dfrac{{a}^{2} + {b}^{2} + 2ab}{3ab}

⇒S1S2=13⇒ \dfrac{{S}_{1}}{{S}_{2}} = \dfrac{1}{3}\left[\dfrac{a}{b} + \dfrac{b}{a} + 2\right]</p><p></p><p>⇒ {\left(\dfrac{{S}_{1}}{{S}_{2}}\right)}_\min = \dfrac{1}{3}\left[1 + 1 + 2\right]{asab+ba≥2}\left\{\text{as}\dfrac{a}{b} + \dfrac{b}{a} \ge 2\right\}

⇒ {\left(\dfrac{{S}_{1}}{{S}_{2}}\right)}_\min = \dfrac{4}{3}

⇒m+n=7⇒ m + n = 7
