Hyperbola

Hyperbola

• Has two equal parts, same size and shape

• Symmetrical

• Approach the axes, but never touche them

• No value of x when y=0, and for y when x=0 (no x-intecepts and no x-intercepts)

• A line that a graph approaches but never intersect is called asymptote

Hyperbola y=2/x

• Asymptote: x=0 and y=0

Plot the graph ​using Desmos / Geogebra.

What did you noticed?​

• Horizontal asymptote: y=0

• Vertical asymptote: x=1

• y-intercept = -2
