KCET2026MathematicsHyperbola
In the figure Statement-I: When > 0 , the section is hyperbola Statement-II: When > 90^ , the section is ellipse Which of the following is correct?
Options
- AStatement I is true, Statement II is false
- BStatement I is false, Statement II is true
- CBoth the Statements are true
- DBoth the Statements are false
Correct answer
A. Statement I is true, Statement II is false
Step-by-step solution
Let be the semi-vertical angle of the cone and be the angle between the intersecting plane and the axis of the cone. The conic sections formed by the intersection of a plane and a double cone are determined by the relationship between and : 1. If 0 2. If = , the plane is parallel to a generator of the cone, forming a parabola. 3. If 4. If = 90^ , the plane is perpendicular to the axis, forming a circle. From the above conditions, when > 0 , the section is a hyperbola. Hence, Statement-I is true. The angle is define
