Given, curves are c1 = xy = k            ...iand                      c2 = x = y2            ...iiOn solving Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get the intersection pointk23, k13On differentiating Eqs. (i) and (ii) w.r.t. x, we getfor Eq. (i), xdydx + y = 0             dydxc1 = - yx                   ...iiifor Eq. (ii),                           1 = 2ydydx                  ...ivAt point k23, k13,                  dydxc1 = - k13k23and             dydxc2 = 12k13Since, the curves cut at right angle, then
