Ex 10.4, 14 Find the equation of the hyperbola satisfying the given conditions: Vertices (±7, 0), e = 4/3 Here, the vertices are on the x-axis. Therefore, the equation of the hyperbola is of the form šš/šš ā šš/šš = 1 Now, coor#dinates of vertices are (± a,0) & Given vertices = (±7, 0), So, (± a,0) = (±7, 0), a = 7 We know that Eccentricity = e = š/š Given that e = 4/3 4/3 = š/š 4a = 3c Putting a = 7 4 Ć 7=3 š 28 = 3 c 3c = 28 c = šš/š Also, we know that c2 = a2 + b2 Putting values (28/3)^2 = 49 + b2 784/9 = 49 + b2 b2 = (784 ā441)/9 b2 = ššš/š Required equation of hyperbola š„2/š2ā š¦2/š2 =1 Putting values š„2/7^2 ā š¦2/(343/9) =1 šš/šš ā ššš/ššš = 1
