Learn how to graph a hyperbola

The video tutorial covers the process of graphing a hyperbola. It begins with an introduction to the hyperbola formula and determining the orientation of the transverse axis. The tutorial then moves on to plotting the center and vertices, followed by calculating the foci using the relationship between a, b, and c. The next section focuses on finding the equations for the asymptotes. Finally, the tutorial demonstrates how to graph the asymptotes and complete the hyperbola graph.

How do you determine if the transverse axis of a hyperbola is vertical or horizontal?

What is the formula for a hyperbola with a horizontal transverse axis?

What are the values of a^2 and b^2 in the given hyperbola?

What is the center of the hyperbola based on the given values?

Explain how to find the foci of a hyperbola.

What are the equations of the asymptotes for the hyperbola?

Describe the steps to graph the hyperbola using the center, vertices, and foci.
