Let $P(3 \sec \theta, 2 \tan \theta)$ and $Q(3 \sec \phi, 2 \tan \phi)$ be two points on the hyperbola $\frac{x^2}{9} - \frac{y^2}{4} = 1$ such that $\theta + \phi = \frac{\pi}{2}$ where $0 < \theta, \phi < \frac{\pi}{2}$. Then the ordinate of the point of intersection of the normals at $P$ and $Q$ is:

$A$ hyperbola having its centre at the origin passes through the point $(5, 2)$ and has a transverse axis of length $8$ along the $X$-axis. What is the eccentricity of its conjugate hyperbola?

If $l$ is the maximum value of $-3x^2+4x+1$ and $m$ is the minimum value of $3x^2+4x+1$,then the equation of the hyperbola having foci at $(l, 0)$ and $(7m, 0)$ and eccentricity $e=2$ is

The equation of the hyperbola whose coordinates of the foci are $(\pm 8, 0)$ and the length of the latus rectum is $24$ units, is
