When it's x²/a² - y²/b²=1 it's the one with zeros on the x axis, at x=±a, y=0.

Here the zeros are at (±5,0) so that's the first page, second graph.

A hyperbola is a two-branched open curve created by the intersection of a circular cone with a plane that cuts both nappes. The correct option is B.

What is a Hyperbola?

A hyperbola is a two-branched open curve created by the intersection of a circular cone with a plane that cuts both nappes.

As per the general equation of hyperbola,

[tex]\dfrac{x^2}{a^2} - \dfrac{y^2}{b^2} = 1[/tex]

a and b are the length and the width of the rectangle in the middle of the graph respectively.

As here the value of a and b is 5 and 4, respectively. Therefore, the graph of the hyperbola [tex]\dfrac{x^2}{5^2} - \dfrac{y^2}{4^2} = 1[/tex] will have a rectangle with a horizontal length of 5 and vertical width of 4 units in between the graph.

Hence, the correct option is B.
