Question : 49
Total: 71
Solution:
Given equation of hyperbola is
−
= 1 which is of the form
−
= 1.
The foci and vertices of the hyperbola lie on y-axis.
Now,a 2 = 9 ⇒ a = 3 and b 2 = 27 ⇒ b = 3 √ 3
Also,c 2 = a 2 + b 2 = 9 + 27 = 36 ⇒ c = 6
So, coordinates of foci are (0, ±c) i.e. (0, ±6)
Coordinates of vertices are (0, ±a) i.e. (0, ±3)
Eccentricity (e) =
=
= 2
Length of latus rectum =
=
= 18.
The foci and vertices of the hyperbola lie on y-axis.
Now,
Also,
So, coordinates of foci are (0, ±c) i.e. (0, ±6)
Coordinates of vertices are (0, ±a) i.e. (0, ±3)
Eccentricity (e) =
Length of latus rectum =
