    The equation of one of the tangents to \[\frac{{{x}^{2}}}{3}-\frac{{{y}^{2}}}{2}=1\]which is parallel to\[y=x,\]is

    A)  \[x-y+2=0\]     

    B)         \[x+y-1=0\]

    C)  \[x+y-2=0\]     

    D)         \[x-y+1=0\]

    E)  \[x+y+1=0\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Given, \[\frac{{{x}^{2}}}{3}-\frac{{{y}^{2}}}{2}=1\] Here,         \[{{a}^{2}}=3,\text{ }{{b}^{2}}=2\] \[\therefore \]Equation of tangent is \[y=mx\pm \sqrt{{{a}^{2}}{{m}^{2}}-{{b}^{2}}}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[y=1.x\pm \sqrt{3-2}\] \[(\because m=1)\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[y=x\pm 1\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[x-y\pm 1=0\] Hence, option (d) Is correct;
