1. Which of the following is the standard form equation of a hyperbola centered at the origin with a horizontal transverse axis?
x²/a² + y²/b² = 1
x²/a² - y²/b² = 1
y²/a² - x²/b² = 1
y²/a² + x²/b² = 1
2. The distance from the center to each focus of a hyperbola is denoted by:
a
b
c
e
1. The two separate curves of a hyperbola are called its .
2. The line segment connecting the two vertices of a hyperbola is called the axis.
3. The equations of the asymptotes for a hyperbola centered at the origin with a horizontal transverse axis are y = ±( / )x.
1. Find the vertices, foci, and asymptotes of the hyperbola with the equation x²/16 - y²/9 = 1. Then, sketch its graph.
2. Write the standard form equation of a hyperbola with vertices at (0, ±5) and foci at (0, ±8).
