MCQ
A rectangular hyperbola of latus rectum $2$ units passes through $(0, 0)$ and has $(1, 0)$ as its one focus. The other focus lies on the curve -
  • A
    $4x^2 + y^2 = 1$
  • $x^2 + y^2 = 9$
  • C
    $x^2 -y^2 = 1$
  • D
    $4x^2 -y^2 = 1$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$x^2 + y^2 = 9$
b
We have $\left|\mathrm{PS}_{1}-\mathrm{PS}_{2}\right|=2 \mathrm{a}.$

$\Rightarrow \quad|\sqrt{\mathrm{h}^{2}+\mathrm{k}^{2}}-1|=2.$

$\therefore $ Other focus lie on $x^{2}+y^{2}=9.$
