question 140

Multiple Choice

Find the asymptotes of the hyperbola.
- $$\frac { ( x - 2 ) ^ { 2 } } { 4 } - \frac { ( y - 1 ) ^ { 2 } } { 25 } = 1$$

• A) \(y - 1 = \frac { 5 } { 2 } ( x - 2 )\) and \(y - 1 = - \frac { 5 } { 2 } ( x - 2 )\)
• B) \(y - 1 = \frac { 2 } { 5 } ( x - 2 )\) and \(y - 1 = - \frac { 2 } { 5 } ( x - 2 )\)
• C) \(y - 2 = \frac { 5 } { 2 } ( x - 1 )\) and \(y - 2 = - \frac { 5 } { 2 } ( x - 1 )\)
• D) \(y = \frac { 5 } { 2 } ( x - 2 )\) and \(y = - \frac { 5 } { 2 } ( x - 2 )\)
