If x² 36 - y² k² =1 is a hyperbola, then which of the following statements can be true?
Options
- A(-3,1) lies on the hyperbola
- B(3,1) lies on the hyperbola
- C(10,4) lies on the hyperbola
- D(5,2) lies on the hyperbola
Correct answer
C. (10,4) lies on the hyperbola
Step-by-step solution
Given, x² 36 - y² k² =1 array ll & y² k² = x² 36 -1 & k²= 36 y² x²-36 array k²>0 If x²-36>0 x²>36 This is true only for point (10,4) . So, (10,4) lies on the hyperbola.
