If the linex-1=0, is a directrix of the hyperbolakx2-y2=6, then the hyperbola passes through the point

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

Given equation of hyperbola is x26k-y26=1

Equation of directrix will be x=±ae,

Where e=1+b2a2=1+66k=1+k

i.e. k-1

 x=±6k1+k is the equation of directrix

i.e. ±6k1+k=1

   k1+k2=6k2+k-6=0

 k=2 as k=-3 is rejected

So equation of hyperbola will be Hx23-y26=1

  5,-2 satisfy the given hyperbola
