Solve this Q1. Consider a branch of the hyperbola x2 – 2y2 – 2 2 x – 4 2 y – 6 = 0 with vertex at the point A. Let B be one of the end points of its latusrectum . If C is the focus of the hyperbola nearest to the point A, then the area of the ∆ ABC is (a) 1 – 2 / 3 sq unit (b) 3 / 2 – 1 sq unit (c) 1 + 2 / 3 sq unit (d) 3 / 2 + 1 sq unit Share with your friends Share 0 Neha Sethi answered this Dear student Equation of hyperbola isx2-2y2-22x-42y-6=0⇒x2-22x+2-2(y2+22y)-6-2=0⇒x-22-2y2+2+22y-8+4=0⇒x-22-2y+22-4=0⇒x-22-2y+22=4⇒x-224-y+222=1 ...(1)Shifting the origin at 2,-2 without rotating the axes and denoting the new coordinateswith respect to these axes by X and Y, we havex=X+2 and y=Y-2Using these relation,eq(1) reduces toX24-Y22=1This is of the form X2a2-Y2b2=1 where a2=4,b2=2.So, we havee=1+b2a2=1+24=32a=2 and b=2So, Area =12ae-1×b2a=12×232-1×22=32-1 sq units Regards 0 View Full Answer Abid answered this Best point is correct 0
