$P$. The length of the conjugate axis of $H$ is $1$. $8$
$Q$. The eccentricity of $H$ is $2$. $\frac{4}{\sqrt{3}}$
$R$. The distance between the foci of $H$ is $3$. $\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}$
$S$. The length of the latus rectum of $H$ is $4$. $4$

The correct option is:

The difference between the focal distances of any point on the hyperbola $\frac{x^2}{a^2}-\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1$ is $6$. If $(\sqrt{13}, k)$ is an endpoint of a latus rectum of this hyperbola,then $k=$

The equation of the normal to the hyperbola $\frac{x^2}{25} - \frac{y^2}{16} = 1$ that is perpendicular to the line $2x + y = 1$ is:

Consider the hyperbola $\frac{x^2}{100}-\frac{y^2}{64}=1$ with foci at $S$ and $S_1$,where $S$ lies on the positive $x$-axis. Let $P$ be a point on the hyperbola,in the first quadrant. Let $\angle SPS_1 = \alpha$,with $\alpha < \frac{\pi}{2}$. The straight line passing through the point $S$ and having the same slope as that of the tangent at $P$ to the hyperbola,intersects the straight line $S_1P$ at $P_1$. Let $\delta$ be the distance of $P$ from the straight line $SP_1$,and $\beta = S_1P$. Then the greatest integer less than or equal to $\frac{\beta \delta}{9} \sin \frac{\alpha}{2}$ is:
