Q1

Let \(S\) denote the locus of the point of intersection of the pair of lines

\(4 x-3 y=12 \alpha \)
\(4 \alpha x+3 \alpha y=12\)

where \(\alpha\) varies over the set of non-zero real numbers. Let \(T\) be the tangent to \(S\) passing through the points \((p, 0)\) and \((0, q), q>0\), and parallel to the line \(4 x-\frac{3}{\sqrt{2}} y=0\). Then the value of \(p q\) is
