Given one asymptote is x+y+c=0
The asymptotes of a rectangular hyperbola are perpendicular to each other.
So, let the other asymptote be x−y+λ=0(1)
We also know that the asymptotes are  passing  through centre of the hyperbola. 

Therefore, the line 2x−y=0 and the asymptotes must be concurrent.
Solving y=2x,x+y+c=0 we  get centre of hyperbola x+2x+c=0 x=-c3 if x=-c3 then y=-2c3 from (1),-c3+2c3+λ=0 λ=-c3 Required asymptote  is x-y-c3=0
