Detailed Solution

 Given ellipse is x24+y21=1 . 

 Eccentricity of the ellipse =114=32

 Focus of the ellipse =(3,0)

 Eccentricity of the hyperbola =1+b2a2 So, 1+b2a2=23ba=13

 Since the hyperbola passes through the focus of the ellipse, 3a20=1

a2=3 and b2=1 Thus, the equation of the hyperbola is 

x23y21=1 or x23y2=3 Focus of hyperbola is (±2,0) .
