Solution

The correct option is B (x4)225(y3)220=1
Here 2b2a=8 and
35=1+b2a2
45=b2a2
a=5,b=25

Thus the equations of the given hyperbola is, if transverse axis parallel to x-axis and conjugate axis parallel to y-axis:
(x4)225(y3)220=1

The equation of hyperbola if transverse axis is parallel to y-axis and conjugate axis parallel to x-axis is:
(y3)225(x4)220=1
