JEE MainMathematicsHyperbolaMCQ+4 / −1
If the line is a directrix of the hyperbola , then the hyperbola passes through the point :
- A
- B
- C
- D
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: C
- Write the hyperbola in standard form
Given:
Divide by :
Rewrite as
So this is a hyperbola of the form with
- Use the directrix condition
For the hyperbola the directrices are where
Given directrix:
Hence,
Now, Since , we get
Using :
Multiply by :
Let . Then
Since , we take
Thus,
- Equation of hyperbola
Substitute into the original equation:
- Check the options
We test each point in
-
A: Not on the hyperbola.
-
B: Not on the hyperbola.
-
C: Lies on the hyperbola.
-
D: Not on the hyperbola.
- Conclusion
The hyperbola passes through which is Option C.
