Solution
The correct option is A Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion Combined equation of the asymptotes is given by ,(3x−4y+7)(4x+3y+1)=0 ∴ Combined equation of the hyperbola is given by (3x−4y+7)(4x+3y+1)+λ=0 (as reason is true) It passes through origin' ∴λ=−7 So equation of hyperbola is (3x−4y+7)(4x+3y+1)=7 Hence, option 'A' is correct.
