Example 16 Find the equation of the hyperbola where foci are (0, Β±12) and the length of the latus rectum is 36. We need to find equation of hyperbola Given foci (0, Β±12) & length of latus rectum 36. Since foci is on the yβˆ’axis So required equation of hyperbola is π’šπŸ/π’‚πŸ – π’™πŸ/π’ƒπŸ = 1 Now, Co-ordinates of foci = (0, Β± c) & given foci = (0, Β±12) So, (0, Β± c) = (0, Β±12) c = 12 We know that Length of latus rectum = 2𝑏2/π‘Ž Given latus rectum = 36 36 = 2𝑏2/π‘Ž 36a = 2b2 2b2 = 36 a b2 = 36/2 π‘Ž b2 = 18a We know that c2 = b2 + a2 Putting value of c & b2 (12)2 = 18a + a2 144 = 18a + a2 a2 + 18a = 144 a + 18a βˆ’ 144 = 0 a2 + 24a βˆ’ 6a βˆ’ 144 = 0 a (a + 24) βˆ’ 6 (a + 24) = 0 (a βˆ’ 6) (a + 24) = 0 So , a = 6 or a = –24 Since β€˜a’ is distance, it cannot be negative , So a = βˆ’24 is not possible ∴ a = 6, From (1) b2 = 18a Putting a = 6 b2 = 18 (6) b2 = 108 Required Equation of hyperbola is 𝑦2/π‘Ž2 βˆ’ π‘₯2/𝑏2 = 1 Putting values 𝑦2/62 βˆ’ π‘₯2/108 = 1 π’šπŸ/πŸ‘πŸ” βˆ’ π’™πŸ/πŸπŸŽπŸ– = 1
