THE HYPERBOLA
The equation of a hyperbola in the standard form is given by
 

x2/a2 - y2/b2 = 1

The relation between a and b is given by
 

b2 = a2(1-e2)

 
PROPERTIES OF A HYPERBOLA

The points A and A’ are called the vertices of the hyperbola. The coordinates of A and A’ are given by (a,0) and […]

Coordinate geometry is a branch of mathematics in which points are represented with respect to a coordinate system, such as Cartesian coordinates, and in which the approach to geometric problems is primarily algebraic. It springs from the idea that any point in two-dimensional space can be represented by two numbers and any point in three-dimensional […]
