  1. Question 1

    Q1. The asymptotes of the hyperbola x²/a² - y²/b² = 1 are

    • A) y = ±(b/a)x
    • B) y = ±(a/b)x
    • C) y = ±(b²/a)x
    • D) y = ±(a²/b)x

    Answer: y = ±(b/a)x

    Explanation: The asymptotes of the hyperbola are given by y = ±(b/a)x, derived from the equation of the hyperbola.
