The distance between the foci of a hyper...

The distance between the foci of a hyperbola is 16 and its eccentricity is `sqrt(2)` then equation of the hyperbola is

A

`x^(2)-y^(2)=32`

B

`(x^(2))/4-(y^(2))/9=1`

C

`2x-3y^(2)=7`

D

none of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Given that, distance between the foci of hyperbola
i.e., 2ae=16 `rArrae=8`….(i)
and `e=sqrt2`…(ii)
Now, `sqrt2a=8`
`rArr a=4sqrt2`
`becauseb^(2)=a^(2)(e^(2)-1)`
`rArr b^(2)=32(2-1)`
`rArrb^(2)=32`
`therefore (x^(2))/32-(y^(2))/32=1`
`rArrx^(2)-y^(2)=32`

The distance between foci of a hyperbola is 16 and its eccentricity is sqrt2 , then the equation of hyperbola is

If the distance between the foci of a hyperbola is 16 and its eccentricity is sqrt(2), then obtain its equation.

Find the standard equation of hyperbola in each of the following cases: (i) Distance between the foci of hyperbola is 16 and its eccentricity is sqrt2. (ii) Vertices of hyperbola are (pm4,0) and foci of hyperbola are (pm6,0) . (iii) Foci of hyperbola are (0,pmsqrt(10)) and it passes through the point (2,3). (iv) Distance of one of the vertices of hyperbola from the foci are 3 and 1.

If the latus rectum of an hyperbola be 8 and eccentricity be (3)/( sqrt5) the the equation of the hyperbola is

If length of the transverse axis of a hyperbola is 8 and its eccentricity is sqrt(5)//2 then the length of a latus rectum of the hyperbola is

Statement- 1 : If the foci of a hyperbola are at (4,1) and (-6,1) and eccentricity is (5)/(4) , then the length of its transverse axis is 4 . Statement- 2 : Distance between the foci of a hyperbola is equal to the product of its eccentricity and length of the transverse axis.

If the eccentricity of a hyperbola is 2, then find the eccentricity of its conjugate hyperbola.
