The conjugate axis of a hyperbola with centre at the origin and transverse axis along the yy-axis is 1414 units long, and its eccentricity is 52\dfrac{\sqrt{5}}{2}. Which of the following is the equation of this hyperbola? a) x2196−y249=1\dfrac{x^{2}}{196}-\dfrac{y^{2}}{49}=1 b) y249−x2196=1\dfrac{y^{2}}{49}-\dfrac{x^{2}}{196}=1 c) y2196−x2196=1\dfrac{y^{2}}{196}-\dfrac{x^{2}}{196}=1 d) y2196−x249=1\dfrac{y^{2}}{196}-\dfrac{x^{2}}{49}=1
