Given equation is of the form x2/a2 – y2/b2 = 1
On comparing given equation with (1), we get
a = 5 and b = 2
Then,
c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 25 + 4 = 29
or c = √29
Now,
(i) Lengths of the axes:
Length of Transverse axis = 2a = 10 units
Length of Conjugate axis = 2b = 4 units
(ii) Coordinates of the vertices: (±a, 0) = (±5, 0)
(iii) Coordinates of the foci: (±c, 0) = (±√29, 0)
(iv) Eccentricity: e = c/a = √29/5
(v) Length of the latus rectum: 2b2/a = 8/5 units
