Conics - Hyperbola

As you have done with parabolas and ellipses, so can you do with hyperbolas. Put the equation in standard form, solve, and graph. Try G-Solve, expand, solve, or "Fit into conics Form" functions. Explore your own equations algebraically and graphically.

1. Hyperbola 1 x-(0,0) Start with the basics, a hyperbola with its center at the origin.
2. Hyperbola 2 y-(0,0) If you know the positions of the foci and length of the conjugate axis, do you know how to graph the hyperbola?
3. Hyperbola 3 x-(h,k) Learn how easy it is to drag n' drop equations in to the "Fit into Conics Form" function.
4. Hyperbola 4 y-(h,k) How do you solve and graph a hyperbola when all you know are the vertices and point?
