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

The tangent drawn at an extremity (in the first quadrant) of the latus rectum of the hyperbola $\frac{x^2}{4}-\frac{y^2}{5}=1$ meets the $x$-axis and $y$-axis at $A$ and $B$ respectively. If $O$ is the origin,then $(OA)^2-(OB)^2=$

Let $e_1$ be the eccentricity of a hyperbola for which the distance between its foci is $2$ times the distance between its directrices,and $e_2$ be the eccentricity of another hyperbola for which the length of its transverse axis is twice the length of its conjugate axis. Then $e_1 e_2 =$

$A$ tangent to a hyperbola $\frac{x^2}{a^2} - \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1$ intercepts a length of unity from each of the coordinate axes. Then the point $(a, b)$ lies on the rectangular hyperbola:

If the latus rectum of a hyperbola $\frac{x^2}{a^2}-\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1$ subtends an angle of $60^{\circ}$ at the other focus,then the eccentricity of the hyperbola is
