Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(x-y+2=0\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given equation of hyperbola \(\begin{aligned} & 16 x^2-25 y^2-96 x+100 y-356=0 \\ & \Rightarrow \quad \frac{(x-3)^2}{25}-\frac{(y-2)^2}{16}=1 \quad \ldots (i) \end{aligned}\) Now equation of tangent to the hyperbola (i) having slope ' 1 ' is…
