If e, e' are the eccentricities of hyperbolas and , then
e = e'
e = -e'
ee' = 1
1/e2 + 1/e'2 = 1
If the normal at (ct, c/t) on the curve xy = c2 meets the curve again in t' , then
t' = -1/t3
t' = -1/t
t' = 1/t2
t'2 = -1/t2

Two diameters with slopes m1,m2 are conjugate if
m1m2 = -1
m1m2 = - b2/a2
m1m2 = a2/b2
m1m2 = b2/a2
If the chords of contact of tangents from two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) to the hyperbola are at right angles, then is equal to
-a2/b2
-b2/a2
-b4/a4
-a4/b4
If e,e' be the eccentricities of two conics S and S' and if e2 + e'2 = 3, then both S and S' can be
Ellipses
Parabola
Hyperbolas
None of these
The diameter of 16 x2 - 9 y2 = 144 which is conjugate to x = 2 y is
y = 16/9 x
y = 32/9 x
x = 16/9 y
x = 32/9 y
The equations of the transverse and conjugate axes of a hyperbola respectively are x + 2y - 3 = 0, 2x - y + 4 = 0 and their respective length are √2 and 2/√3. The equation of the hyperbola is.
2/5 ( x + 2y - 3)2 - 3/5 (2x - y + 4)2 = 1
2/5 (2x - y + 4)2 - 3/5 (x + 2y - 3)2 = 1
2 (2x - y + 4 )2 - 3 (x + 2y - 3)2 = 1
2 (x + 2y - 3)2 - 3 (2x - y + 4)2 = 1
The equation represents
an ellipse
a parabola
a hyperbola
a circle
