what type of conic section is given by the following equation ?
\n" ); document.write( "(x-2)^2/2^2-(y+1)^2/5^2=1
\n" ); document.write( "This is a hyperbola with horizontal transverse axis. (x-term listed in front of y-term)
\n" ); document.write( "Its standard form of equation: (x-h)^2/a^2-(y-k)^2/b^2=1, (h,k)=(x,y) coordinates of the center.
\n" ); document.write( "Given equation:\"%28x-2%29%5E2%2F4-%28y%2B1%29%5E2%2F25=1\"
\n" ); document.write( "center:(2,-1)
\n" ); document.write( "
