Question

Which statements about the hyperbola are true? Check

Answer 1

Answer:

Options (1), (2), (4) and (5) are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Characteristics of the given hyperbola,

1). Vertex of the given hyperbola are at (-3, 6) and (-3, 4).

2). Since center of a hyperbola is the center of a line joining vertices of the hyperbola,

Center of the given parabola will be,

$(\frac{-3-3}{2},\frac{6+4}{2})$ ⇒ (-3, 5)

3). Vertical line joining the foci of the hyperbola is the transverse axis.

4). A line perpendicular to the transverse axis and passing through the center will be the conjugate axis.

5). Directrices of a horizontal hyperbola are the horizontal lines.

Therefore, Options (1), (2), (4) and (5) are correct.
