Question 16 of 90 in this shift, Maths question 16 of 30, Section A.

If the foci of a hyperbola are same as that of the ellipse x29+y225=1\frac{x^2}{9}+\frac{y^2}{25}=1 and the eccentricity of the hyperbola is 158\frac{15}{8} times the eccentricity of the ellipse, then the smaller focal distance of the point (2,14325)\left(\sqrt{2},\frac{14}{3}\sqrt{\frac{2}{5}}\right) on the hyperbola, is equal to
  1. (1)725+837\sqrt{\frac{2}{5}}+\frac{8}{3}
  2. (2)1425−4314\sqrt{\frac{2}{5}}-\frac{4}{3}
  3. (3)725−837\sqrt{\frac{2}{5}}-\frac{8}{3}Official answer
