Hi,

length of the transverse axis(distance between vertices) = 2·5 = 10
Standard Form of an Equation of an Hyperbola opening up and down is:
with C(h,k) and vertices 'b' units up and down from center, 2b the length of the transverse axis
Foci units units up and down from center, along x = h
& Asymptotes Lines passing thru C(h,k), with slopes m = ± b/a
