Q. If asymptotes of a hyperbola are at $90{^\circ}$, then
A) Eccentricity is $\sqrt{2}$
B) Eccentricity is 2
C) Eccentricity depends on equation of asymptotes
D) None of the above
Explanation
(a)
Since, asymptotes are at$90{^\circ}$, it means that it is a rectangular hyperbola.
$\therefore\$Eccentricity is $\sqrt{2}.$
