Solution
The correct option is A Both statements are true and Statement 2 is the correct explanation of Statement 1. We know that equation of axis for hyperbola xy=k is given by
x=y and x=−y. Combined equation of both the axis can be writtten as x2−y2=0
And Statement 2 gives a proper definition of axis.
