  1. Question 1

    Q1. The equation of the hyperbola with foci at (±c, 0) is

    • A) x²/a² + y²/b² = 1
    • B) x²/a² - y²/b² = 1
    • C) y²/a² - x²/b² = 1
    • D) y²/a² + x²/b² = 1

    Answer: x²/a² - y²/b² = 1

    Explanation: The standard form of the hyperbola equation with transverse axis along x-axis is x²/a² - y²/b² = 1, where b² = c² - a².
