To show that PP is the midpoint of ABAB and CDCD, we first need to find the coordinates of points A,B,C,A, B, C, and DD. The curve is defined by the parametric equations x=ctx = ct and y=cty = \frac{c}{t}, where t>0t>0 and cc is a constant. The point PP is given as (cp,cp)\left(cp, \frac{c}{p}\right), which means the parameter t=pt=p at point PP.

1. Find the equation of the tangent at point P.
First, we find the derivatives of xx and yy with respect to tt:
