If a hyperbola has length of its conjugate axis equal to 5 and the distance between its foci is 13 , then the eccentricity of the hyperbola is:
Options
- A13 12
- B2
- C13 6
- D13 8
Correct answer
A. 13 12
Step-by-step solution
Conjugate axis =5 2 b=5 Distance betwecn foci =132 a e=13 Then, b²=a² (e²-1 ) a²=36 a=6a e= 13 2 e= 13 12
