Find the equation of a hyperbola whose vertices lie on y-axis, centre is at the origin, the distance between the foci is 16 and eccentricity is
Find the co-ordinates of foci, the vertices, the length of transverse axis, the length of conjugate axis, the eccentricity, the latus rectum of the hyperbola:
Find the co-ordinates of foci, the vertices, the length of transverse axis, the length of conjugate axis, the eccentricity, the latus rectum of the hyperbola:
The vertices of the hyperbola lie on x-axis.
∴ The standard equation of the hyperbola is ...(i)
The vertices are
Also, eccentricity
∴ c = ae =
Now,
Hence, from (i), the equation of hyperbola is : .
For the hyperbola 3X2 – 2y2 = 1.
Find: (i) the lengths of the transverse and conjugate axes.
(ii) the co-ordinates of foci.
(iii) the co-ordinates of vertices.
(iv) the eccentricity.
(v) the length of latus rectum.
