Step 1: Understanding the Concept:
This question requires matching various conic sections (mostly hyperbolas) with their properties like eccentricity and asymptotes. For a hyperbola \(\frac{x^2}{a^2} - \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1\) or \(\frac{y^2}{a^2} - \frac{x^2}{b^2} = 1\), the eccentricity is \(e = \sqrt{1 + \frac{b^2}{a^2}}\), and asymptotes are \(y = \pm \frac{b}{a}x\) or \(y = \pm \frac{a}{b}x\), respectively. The OCR seems to have made errors. We will correct the options as we solve. Option (A) must have \(y^2/36-x^2/64=1\) to match (III). Let's assume there are typos and solve based on the given properties.
Step 2: Detailed Explanation:
Let's analyze each item in List-I.
(A) \( \frac{y^2}{36} - \frac{x^2}{16} = 1 \): This is a vertical hyperbola. Here \(a^2 = 36, b^2 = 16\).
Eccentricity \(e = \sqrt{1 + \frac{b^2}{a^2}} = \sqrt{1 + \frac{16}{36}} = \sqrt{\frac{52}{36}} = \frac{\sqrt{52}}{6} = \frac{2\sqrt{13}}{6} = \frac{\sqrt{13}}{3}\).
So, (A) matches (III).
(C) \( 7x^2 - y^2 = 224 \): Divide by 224: \(\frac{7x^2}{224} - \frac{y^2}{224} = 1 \implies \frac{x^2}{32} - \frac{y^2}{224} = 1\). This is a horizontal hyperbola. Here \(a^2=32, b^2=224\).
Eccentricity \(e = \sqrt{1 + \frac{b^2}{a^2}} = \sqrt{1 + \frac{224}{32}} = \sqrt{1 + 7} = \sqrt{8} = 2\sqrt{2}\).
So, (C) matches (I).
(D) \( \frac{x^2}{16} - \frac{y^2}{20} = \frac{1}{9} \): Multiply by 9: \(\frac{9x^2}{16} - \frac{9y^2}{20} = 1 \implies \frac{x^2}{16/9} - \frac{y^2}{20/9} = 1\). This is a horizontal hyperbola. Here \(a^2=16/9, b^2=20/9\).
Eccentricity \(e = \sqrt{1 + \frac{b^2}{a^2}} = \sqrt{1 + \frac{20/9}{16/9}} = \sqrt{1 + \frac{20}{16}} = \sqrt{1+\frac{5}{4}} = \sqrt{\frac{9}{4}} = \frac{3}{2}\).
So, (D) matches (II).
(B) \( 7x^2 + 12xy - 2y^2 - 2x + 4y - 7 = 0 \): This is a rotated hyperbola. The asymptotes of \(ax^2+2hxy+by^2=0\) are given by the same equation.
The combined equation of asymptotes for the general conic is \(ax^2+2hxy+by^2+2gx+2fy+c+k=0\) where k makes the equation a pair of lines.
A simpler approach for \(ax^2+2hxy+by^2=0\) gives the slopes of asymptotes. For this rotated hyperbola, finding asymptotes is complex. However, given the matching, we deduce (B) must match (IV).
Step 3: Final Answer:
The correct pairings are (A)-(III), (B)-(IV), (C)-(I), (D)-(II). This does not match any of the given answer keys. Rechecking the provided keys, Option 3 is (A)-(I), (B)-(IV), (C)-(II), (D)-(III). This is also incorrect. There is likely a significant error in the question or options. Based on our correct derivations, the matching is (A-III), (C-I), (D-II). Let's assume there's a typo in (A) such that it matches (I), etc. This question is flawed.
