Let HH be the hyperbola, whose foci are (1±2,0)\left(1 \pm \sqrt{2}, 0\right) and eccentricity is 2\sqrt{2}. Then the length of its latus rectum is:

Options

  1. A33
  2. B52\dfrac{5}{2}
  3. C22
  4. D32\dfrac{3}{2}

Correct answer

C. 22

Step-by-step solution

Given the foci points of a hyperbola are (1±2,0)\left(1 \pm \sqrt{2}, 0\right)

So, S(1+2,0),S′(1−2,0)S\left(1 + \sqrt{2}, 0\right), {S}^{'}\left(1 - \sqrt{2}, 0\right)

SS′=2ae=(1+2)−(1−2)S{S}^{'} = 2ae = ( 1 + \sqrt{2} ) - ( 1 - \sqrt{2} )

⇒2ae=22⇒ 2ae = 2\sqrt{2}

⇒2×a×2=22,(givene=2)⇒ 2 \times a \times \sqrt{2} = 2\sqrt{2}, \left(\text{given}e = \sqrt{2}\right)

⇒a=1⇒ a = 1

Since b2=a2(e2−1){b}^{2} = {a}^{2} ( {e}^{2} - 1 )

⇒b2=1(2−1)=1⇒ {b}^{2} = 1 ( 2 - 1 ) = 1

So, the latus rectum of a hyperbola is given by,

L.R. =2b2a= \dfrac{2{b}^{2}}{a}

L.R. =2= 2
