Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsD
Given a rectangular hyperbola whose asymptotes are parallel to coordinate axis and point of intersection of perpendicular tangents (means centre of hyperbola) is
, the equation of hyperbola we can take as

Hyperbola (i) passes through point
, so

Therefore equation of the required hyperbola is

Given coordinates of midpoints of the sides
,
