If the transverse and conjugate axes of hyperbola are equal, then its eccentricity is
Options
- A3
- B2
- C1 2
- D2
Correct answer
B. 2
Step-by-step solution
Given that, transverse and conjugate axis of hyperbola are equal. C D transverse axis A B conjugate axis 2 b=2 a a=b Using equation of hyperbola x^2 a^2 - y^2 b^2 =1 b^2=a^2 (e^2-1 ) Now, a^2=a^2 (e^2-1 ) e^2=2 e= 2
