Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 4

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let \((h, k)\) be any points of hyperbola \[ \begin{aligned} & x^2-y^2 & =8 \\ \therefore & h^2-k^2 & =8 \end{aligned} \] Asymptotes of hyperbola \(x^2-y^2=8\) is \[ x+y=0 \text { and } x-y=0 \] Distance from \((h, k)\) to the asymptote \(x+y=0\) is…
