A hyperbola having the transverse axis of length 2 units has the same focii as that of ellipse 3 x 2 + 4 y 2 = 12 , then its equation is
Options
- A2 x 2 - 2 y 2 = 1
- B2 x 2 - 2 y 2 = 3
- Cx 2 - y 2 = - 2
- Dx 2 - y 2 = 2
Correct answer
A. 2 x 2 - 2 y 2 = 1
Step-by-step solution
For the hyperbola x 2 a 2 - y 2 b 2 = 1 , length of semi transverse axis a = 1 2 , For the ellipse x 2 4 + y 2 3 = 1 , the foci is ± 1,0 i.e. ± 1 = ± a 2 + b 2 ⇒ b 2 = 1 - a 2 = 1 - 1 2 = 1 2   Hence, the equation of the required hyperbola is x 2 1 2 - y 2 1 2 = 1
