The foci of hyperbola 4 x^2-9 y^2-1=0 are

The foci of hyperbola 4x2−9y2−1=04 x^2-9 y^2-1=0 are

Options

  1. A(±13,0)( \pm \sqrt{13}, 0)
  2. B(±136,0)\left( \pm \frac{\sqrt{13}}{6}, 0\right)
  3. C(0,±36)\left(0, \pm \frac{\sqrt{3}}{6}\right)
  4. DNone of these

Correct answer

B. (±136,0)\left( \pm \frac{\sqrt{13}}{6}, 0\right)

Step-by-step solution

Given, Hyperbola =4x2−9y2−1=0=4 x^2-9 y^2-1=0⇒x2(14)−y2(19)=1⇒x2122−y2132=1\begin{aligned} & \Rightarrow \frac{x^2}{\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)}-\frac{y^2}{\left(\frac{1}{9}\right)}=1 \\ & \Rightarrow \frac{x^2}{\frac{1}{2}^2}-\frac{y^2}{\frac{1}{3}^2}=1 \end{aligned}We know that. if hyperbola is $\frac{x^2}{a^2}-\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1$. then Eccentricity: $e=\sqrt{1+\frac{b^2}{a^2}}\begin{aligned} & \text{and focus } \equiv( \pm \text{be}, 0)=\left( \pm \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{\sqrt{1 / 3}}{3}, 0\right)=\left( \pm \frac{\sqrt{13}}{6}, 0\right) \end{aligned}$$$
