Therefore, the equation of the hyperbola is of the form (x²)/(a²) – (y²)/(b²) = 1.

Since the foci are (±5, 0), c = 5.

Since the length of the transverse axis is 8, 2a = 8

⇒ a = 4.

We know that a² + b² = c².

Since the foci are (0, ±13), c = 13.

Since the length of the conjugate axis is 24, 2b = 24 ⇒ b = 12.

We know that a² + b² = c²

∴a² + 12² = 13²

Here, the foci are on the x-axis.

Therefore, the equation of the hyperbola is of the form (x²)/(a²) – (y²)/(b²) = 1

Since the foci are

(±3√5, 0)c = ±3√5

Length of latus rectum = 8

2b²/_a = 8

b² = 4a

We know that, a² + b² = c²

a² + 4a = 45

a² + 4a – 45 = 0

a² + 9a – 5a – 45 = 0

(a + 9)(a – 5) = 0

a = -9 or 5

Since a is non- negative, a = 5

b² = 4a = 4 x 5 = 20

Since the foci are (±4, 0), c = 4.

Length of latus rectum = 12

2b²/_a= 12

b² = 6a

We know that a² + b² = c²

∴a² + 6a = 16

a² + 8a – 6a – 16 = 0

(a + 8)(a – 2) = 0

a = -8 or 2

Since a is non negative, a = 2

b² = 6a = 6 x 2 = 12

Thus, the equation of the hyperbola is x²/₄ – y²/₁₂ = 1

14. Find the equation of the hyperbola satisfying the give conditions: Vertices (±7, 0), e = ⁴/₃

Solution:

Vertices (±7, 0), e = ⁴/₃

Since the vertices are (±7, 0), a = 7.

It is given that e = ⁴/₃ , we know e = ^c/_a

^c/_a = ⁴/₃

^c/₇ = ⁴/₃

c = ²⁸/₃

We know that a² + b² = c².

7² + b² = (²⁸/₃)²

b² = ⁷⁸⁴/₉ – 49

b² = ^{(784 – 441)}/₉ = ³⁴³/₉

Thus the equation of the hyperbola x²/₄₉ – (9y²)/₃₄₃ = 1

15. Find the equation of the hyperbola satisfying the give conditions: Foci (0, ±√10) , passing through (2, 3)

Solution:

Foci (0, ±√10) , passing through (2, 3)

Here, the foci are on the y-axis.

Therefore, the equation of the hyperbola is of the form y²/a² – x²/b² = 1

Since the foci are (0, ±√10)

c = √10

We know that a² + b² = c²

∴ a² + b² = 10

⇒ b² = 10 – a² ————- (1)

Since the hyperbola passes through point (2, 3)

⁹/a² – ⁴/b² = 1 —————-(2)

From equations (1) and (2), we obtain

⁹/a² – ⁴/(10-a²) = 1

9(10 – a²) – 4a² = a²(10 – a²)

90 – 9a² – 4a² = a²10 – a⁴

a⁴– 23a² + 90 = 0

a⁴– 18a²– 5a² + 90 = 0

a²(a² – 18)-5(a² – 18) = 0

a² = 18 or 5

In hyperbola c > a i.e., c² > a²

a² = 5

b² = 10 – a² = 10 – 5 = 5

Thus the equation of the hyperbola is y²/₅ – x²/₅ = 1
