vertices $(0, \pm3)$, foci $(0, \pm5)$ [NCERT]
$\frac{\text{x}^{2}}{\text{a}^{2}}-\frac{\text{y}^{2}}{\text{b}^{2}}=-1 ---(\text{i})$
The coordinates of its vertices and foci are $(0, \pm\text{b})$ and $(0, \pm\text{be})$ respectively.
$\therefore\text{b}=3$ $[\because$ vertices = $(0, \pm)]$
$\Rightarrow\text{b}^{2}-9$
and, $\text{be} = 5$ $[\because$ Foci = $(0, \pm5)]$
$\Rightarrow\text{e}\times3=5$
$\Rightarrow\text{e}\times3=5$
$\Rightarrow\text{e}=\frac{5}{3}$
$\Rightarrow\text{e}^{2}=\frac{25}{9}$
Now,
$\text{a}^{2}-\text{b}^{2}(\text{e}^{2}-1)$
$\Rightarrow\text{a}^{2}-9(\frac{25}{9}-1)$
$= 9\times(\frac{25-9}{9})$
$=9\times\frac{16}{9}$
$=16$
Putting $\text{a}^{2}-16$ and $\text{b}^{2}-9$ in equation (i), we get
$\frac{\text{x}^{2}}{16}-\frac{\text{y}^{2}}{9}=-1$
Hence, the equation of the required hyperbola is
$\frac{\text{x}^{2}}{16}-\frac{\text{y}^{2}}{9}=-1$
