    directrix
  3. C
    abscissae of vertices
  4. D
    abscissae of foci

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

The standard form of a hyperbola is .Here and .The eccentricity is given by :


Eccentricity depends on .Abscissae of vertices are , which depend on .Abscissae of foci are :

So, the foci are . These remain constant regardless of the value of .
