Find the asymptotes of the hypebola whose  equation is given by.  (x/(24)) − (y/(29)) = 1

((29x − 24y)/(696)) = 1  29x − 24y = 696  29x − 696 = 24y  y = ((29x − 696)/(24)) = ((29x)/(24)) − 29  y is a function f(x) = ax + b , a = ((29)/(24)) and   b = −29

$$\frac{\mathrm{29}{x}\:−\:\mathrm{24}{y}}{\mathrm{696}}\:=\:\mathrm{1} \\ $$$$\mathrm{29}{x}\:−\:\mathrm{24}{y}\:=\:\mathrm{696} \\ $$$$\mathrm{29}{x}\:−\:\mathrm{696}\:=\:\mathrm{24}{y} \\ $$$${y}\:=\:\frac{\mathrm{29}{x}\:−\:\mathrm{696}}{\mathrm{24}}\:=\:\frac{\mathrm{29}{x}}{\mathrm{24}}\:−\:\mathrm{29} \\ $$$${y}\:\mathrm{is}\:\mathrm{a}\:\mathrm{function}\:\mathrm{f}\left(\mathrm{x}\right)\:=\:\mathrm{ax}\:+\:\mathrm{b}\:,\:{a}\:=\:\frac{\mathrm{29}}{\mathrm{24}}\:\mathrm{and}\: \\ $$$${b}\:=\:−\mathrm{29} \\ $$$$ \\ $$$$ \\ $$$$ \\ $$$$ \\ $$

the equation of hyperbola ≡(((x−h)^2 )/a^2 )−(((y−k)^2 )/b^2 )=1  the centre of hyperbola =(h,k)=(0,0)  a^2 =24 ⇒ a=2(√6)  b^2 =29 ⇒ b=(√(29))  the equation of hyperbola asymtotes : y=±(b/a)(x−h)+k  ⇒ y=±((√(29))/(2(√6))) x  ⇒ y=±((√(174))/(12)) x

$$\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{equation}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{hyperbola}\:\equiv\frac{\left(\mathrm{x}−\mathrm{h}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} }{\mathrm{a}^{\mathrm{2}} }−\frac{\left(\mathrm{y}−\mathrm{k}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} }{\mathrm{b}^{\mathrm{2}} }=\mathrm{1} \\ $$$$\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{centre}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{hyperbola}\:=\left(\mathrm{h},\mathrm{k}\right)=\left(\mathrm{0},\mathrm{0}\right) \\ $$$$\mathrm{a}^{\mathrm{2}} =\mathrm{24}\:\Rightarrow\:\mathrm{a}=\mathrm{2}\sqrt{\mathrm{6}} \\ $$$$\mathrm{b}^{\mathrm{2}} =\mathrm{29}\:\Rightarrow\:\mathrm{b}=\sqrt{\mathrm{29}} \\ $$$$\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{equation}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{hyperbola}\:\mathrm{asymtotes}\::\:\mathrm{y}=\pm\frac{\mathrm{b}}{\mathrm{a}}\left(\mathrm{x}−\mathrm{h}\right)+\mathrm{k} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\:\mathrm{y}=\pm\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{29}}}{\mathrm{2}\sqrt{\mathrm{6}}}\:\mathrm{x} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\:\mathrm{y}=\pm\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{174}}}{\mathrm{12}}\:\mathrm{x} \\ $$
