Detailed Solution

The given ellipse is  x225+y29=1
      
Comparing with    x2a2+y2b2=1
a2=25      and  b2=9
then   eccentricity  e=1b2a2=1925=45
   Foci of ellipse are (±ae,  0)  i.e,  (±4,  0)
So, the co-ordinates of foci of the hyperbola are  (±4,  0)
Let  e'  be the eccentricity of the required hyperbola and its equation be
x2A2y2B2=1      …… (1)
The co-ordinates of foci are  (±Ae',  0)
   Ae'=4    A×2=4        A=2
Also   B2=A2(e'21)                 (given  e'=2)
  =4(41)=12
Substituting the values of A and B in (1), we get
  x24y212=1
or  3x2y212=0
which is required hyperbola.
