Hi,
C(4,6) opening Up and down along x = 4
Vertices: V(4,8) and V(4,4) units up and down from center
foci: F(4,9) and F(4,3) | | = 3 units up and down from center
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
