Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(x^2-y^2-2 \sqrt{3} x y=8\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given equation, \(x^2+2 \sqrt{3} x y-y^2=8\) Since, the axes are rotated through an angle \(\pi / 3\). \(\therefore(x, y)\) replaced by \(\left(x \cos \frac{\pi}{3}-y \sin \frac{\pi}{3}, x \sin \frac{\pi}{3}+y \cos \frac{\pi}{3}\right)\) i.e.…
