The descending order of magnitude of the eccentricities of the following hyperbolas is:
A. A hyperbola whose distance between foci is three times the distance between its directrices.
B. Hyperbola in which the transverse axis is twice the conjugate axis.
C. Hyperbola with asymptotes \( x + y + 1 = 0, x - y + 3 = 0 \).
Hyperbola is the locus of all the points in a plane such that the difference in their distances from two fixed points in the plane is constant.
Hyperbola is made up of two similar curves that resemble a parabola. Hyperbola has two fixed points which can be shown in the picture, are known as foci or focus. When we join the foci or focus using a line segment then its midpoint gives us centre. Hence, this line segment is known as the transverse axis.
