HYPERBOLA, , HYPERBOLA, 1. DEFINITION, A hyperbola is the locus of a point which moves in a plane so that the ratio of its distances from a fixed point, (called focus) and a fixed line (called directrix) is a constant which is greater than one. This ratio is called, eccentricity and is denoted by e. For a hyperbola e > 1., Let S be the focus, QN be the directrix and P be any point on the hyperbola. Then, by definition, , PS, or PS = e PN, e > 1,, PN, where PN is the length of the perpendicular from P on the directrix QN., An Alternate Definition, A hyperbola is the locus of a point which moves in such a way that the difference of its distances from two, fixed points (called foci) is constant., , 2.

HYPERBOLA, , Centre The point of intersection C of the axes of hyperbola is called the centre of the hyperbola. All chords,, passing through C, are bisected at C., Vertices The points A (a, 0) and A' (–a, 0) where the curve meets the line joining the foci S and S', are, called the vertices of the hyperbola., Focal Chord A chord of the hyperbola passing through its focus is called a focal chord., Focal Distances of a Point The difference of the focal distances of any point on the hyperbola is constant, and equal to the length of the transverse axis of the hyperbola. If P is any point on the hyperbola, then, S'P – SP = 2a = Transverse axis., Latus Rectum If LL' and NN' are the latus rectum of the hyperbola then these lines are perpendicular to the, transverse axis AA', passing through the foci S and S' respectively., , , b 2 , L ae,, , a ,, , , , b 2 , L' ae,, , a ,, , , , b 2 , N ae,, , a ,, , , , b 2 , N' ae,, , a ., , , 2b 2, = NN'., a, Eccentricity of the Hyperbola We know that, Length of latus rectum = LL' =, , SP = e PM, or, , SP2 = e2 PM2, , or, , a, , (x – ae) + (y – 0) = e N' x , e, , 2, 2, 2, (x – ae) + y = (ex – a), 2, , 2, , 2, , 2, , x2 + a2e2 – 2aex + y2 = e2x 2 – 2aex + a2, x2 (e2 – 1) – y2 = a2 (e2 – 1), , x2, a2, On comparing with, , , , x2, a2, , y2, a 2 (e 2 1), , , y2, b2, , 1., , 1 , we get, , b2 = a2 (e2 – 1), , or e =, , 1, , b2, a2, , 4.
