4 Hyperbola
Transverse Axis
Asymptotes of a Hyperbola
Definition of Hyperbola
A hyperbola: a plane curve generated by a
point so moving that the difference of the
distances from two fixed points(foci) is a
constant : a curve formed by the
intersection of a double right circular cone
with a plane that cuts both halves of the
cone
Horizontal and Vertical Hyperbola
The foci are on the Transversal Axis.
