Solution

Let S(-1,1) be the focus nd P(x,y) be a point on the hyperbola Draw PM perpenicular from p on the directrix.Then,by definition.SP=ePMSP2=e2PM2(x1)2+(Y1)2=(3)2[xy+311+(1)2]2 [e=3]x2+1+2x+y2+12y=9[xy+3]222[x2+y2+2x2y+2]=9[xy+3]22x2+2y2+4x4y+4=9[x29(y)2+32+2×x×(y)×3+2×3×x]2x2+2y2+4x4y4=9[x2+y2+92xy6y+6x]2x2+2y2+4x4y+4=9x2+9y2+8118xy54y+4y+814=07x2+7y218xy+50x50y+77=0This is the required equation of the hyperbola.
