Detailed Solution

Given

   2a=2, 2b=23 a=12,b=13

If we  take the two axes as the new coordinate system, and point of intersection of the axes as the new origin, then in the new coordinae system, equation of hyperbola will be 

X2a2-Y2b2=1 2X2-3Y2=1

 Let P(x,y) be the coordinates of a point on the hyperbola in original x-y system, then

X=2xy+45,Y=x+2y35( X is the distance of a point on hyperbola from 2x−y+4=0 and Y is the distance of a point on hyperbola from x+2y−3=0  )

So,required equation is 2(2x-y+4)25-3(x+2y-3)25=1
