hyperbola | ||||||||||||
Find the hyperbola equation that its vertices (2,3) and (8,3) and their foci are (-1,3) and (11,3) ! Solution : Since their vertices and their foci lie on the equal ordinate the general hyperbola equation should be : (x-p)^2/a^2-(y-q)^2/b^2=1 where (p,q)=its asymptotes cross connect a^2+b^2=c^2 their foci : F1(p-c,q) F2(p+c,q) where q=3 (equal ordinate) asymptotes cross connect : its absisca=(2+8)/2=10/5 its ordinate=q=3 its asymptote cross connect should be(5,3) a=distance between its asymptote cross connect to its vertices a=8-5=3 c=distance between its foci to asymptote cross connect c=11-5=6 since a^2+b^2=c^2 then 3^2+b^2=6^2 b^2=36-9 b^2=27 b=3*sqrt(3) its solution should be : (x-5)^2/9-(y-3)^2/27=1 |
