Let the eccentricity of the hyperbola a2x2−b2y2=1 be reciprocal to that of the ellipse x2+4y2=4. If the hyperbola passes through a focus of the ellipse, then
Answers:B. a focus of the hyperbola is (2,0) · D. the equation of the hyperbola is x2−3y2=3
Let the eccentricity of the hyperbola x²/a² - y²/b² = 1 be reciprocal to that of the ellipse x² + 4y² = 4. If the hyperbola passes through a focus of the ellipse, then
Ellipse: x2+4y2=4⇒4x2+1y2=1
Hyperbola: a2x2−b2y2=1
e_(hyp) = 1/eₑₗₗ, hyp passes through a focus of the ellipse
To find: the correct statement(s) about the hyperbola
