Given
so,
now any point of given hyperbola can be written as
so,
Let's that point on hyperbola is
Now we have to find distance between and , and minimize the distance
distance between two given points and are given by
so,
for finding minimum value of distance we differentiate d with respect to x and equate with zero, and find value of x where d' is zero
so, first squaring both side then differentiating
at becomes zero
so, that point will be
hence, point on hyperbola whose distance from (3,0) will be minimum is (4,2).
