Which of the following pairs may represent the eccentricities of two conjugate hyperbolas, for `alpha in (0,pi//2)`?

A

`sin theta, cos theta`

B

`tan theta, cot theta`

C

`sec theta, "cosec"theta`

D

`1+sintheta,1+cos theta`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

If `e_(1)` and `e_(2)` are the eccentricities of two conjugate hyperbolas, then
`(1)/(e_(1)^(2))+(1)/(e_(2)^(2))=1`
Therefore, `e_(1)=sec theta and e_(2)="cosec"theta.`
