Let e1e_1 be the eccentricity of a hyperbola for which distance between its focii is 2 times the distance between its directrices and e2e_2 be the eccentricity of another hyperbola for which the length of its transverse axis is twice the length of its the conjugate axis. Then e1e2=e_1 e_2=

Options

  1. A1
  2. B102\frac{\sqrt{10}}{2}
  3. C5\sqrt{5}
  4. D52\frac{\sqrt{5}}{2}

Correct answer

B. 102\frac{\sqrt{10}}{2}

Step-by-step solution

Given e1e_1 is the eccentricity of hyperbola and eccentricity e2\mathrm{e}_2 of another hyperbola. According to question, \begin{aligned}& 2 \mathrm{a}}_{1} \mathrm{e}}_{1}=2 \times \frac{2 \mathrm{a}_1}{\mathrm{e}_1}\\ \text{ and } \mathrm{e}}_{1}^2=2 \\ \text{ and } \mathrm{e}}_{1}= \pm \sqrt{2} \end{aligned}Here, e1>1e_1>1 then e1=2e_1=\sqrt{2} Now, 2a2=4 b22 \mathrm{a}_2=4 \mathrm{~b}_2\begin{aligned}& \mathrm{a}}_{2}=2 \mathrm{~b}}_{2} \\ \text{ and } \mathrm{~b}}_{2}=\frac{\mathrm{a}_2}{2} \end{aligned}So,So,c_2^2=a_2^2+b_2^2\begin{aligned} & \mathrm{c}}_{2}^2=\mathrm{a}}_{2}^2+\frac{\mathrm{a}_2^2}{4}=\frac{5 \mathrm{a}_2^2}{4}\\ \text{ and } \mathrm{c}}_{2}=\frac{\sqrt{5}}{2} \mathrm{a}}_{2} \\ \text{ and } \frac{\mathrm{c}_2}{\mathrm{a}_2}=\frac{\sqrt{5}}{2}\\ \text{ and } \mathrm{e}}_{2}=\frac{\sqrt{5}}{2} \end{aligned}$Then,Then,\mathrm{e}_1 \mathrm{e}_2=\sqrt{2} \times \frac{\sqrt{5}}{2}=\frac{\sqrt{10}}{2}$ So, option (b) is correct.
