HYPERBOLA

Is the segment joining the vertices and has length of 2a

• Transverse axis

• Conjugate Axis

Is the segment that is the perpendicular bisector of the teansverse axis, 2b

• Focal Length

• Transverse axis

• Conjugate Axis

Is the line segment joining the foci with lengjt of 2c

• Focal length

• Conjugate Axis

Two fixed point of the hyperbola with the transverse axis, plural form is vertices

• Vertex

• Asymptote

• Eccentricity

A line that passes through the center of the hyperbola and is asymptotic to the curves

• Asymptote

• Eccentricity

e>1, as e approaches 1, the hyperbola becomes

• Narrow

• Wide
