1. Definition A hyperbola is the set of all points such that the difference of the distance from two given points called foci is constant

2. Definition The parts of a hyperbola are: transverse axis

3. Definition The parts of a hyperbola are: conjugate axis

4. Definition The parts of a hyperbola are: center

5. Definition The parts of a hyperbola are: vertices

6. Definition The parts of a hyperbola are: foci

12. Definition The parts of a hyperbola are: the asymptotes

13. Definition The distance from the center to each vertex is a units a The transverse axis is 2 a units long 2a2a

14. Definition The distance from the center to the rectangle along the conjugate axis is b units b 2b2b The length of the conjugate axis is 2 b units

15. Definition The distance from the center to each focus is c units where c

16. Sketch the graph of the hyperbola What are the coordinates of the foci? What are the coordinates of the vertices? What are the equations of the asymptotes?

18. How do get the hyperbola into an up-down position? switch x and y identify vertices, foci, asymptotes for:

20. Definition where ( h, k ) is the center Standard equations:

21. Definition The equations of the asymptotes are: for a hyperbola that opens left & right

22. Definition The equations of the asymptotes are: for a hyperbola that opens up & down

23. Summary Vertices and foci are always on the transverse axis Distance from the center to each vertex is a units Distance from center to each focus is c units where

24. Summary If x term is positive, hyperbola opens left & right If y term is positive, hyperbola opens up & down a 2 is always the positive denominator
