The equation of a hyperbola is
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28x-h%29%5E2%2Fa%5E2+-+%28y-k%29%5E2+%2Fb%5E2=1\", where (\"h\",\"k\") is the center, \"a\" and \"b\" are the lengths of the semi-major and the semi-minor axes.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "given:
\n" ); document.write( "Vertices: (\"13\",\"0\"), (\"-1\",\"0\") \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "asymptotes: \"y+=+x+-+6\" and \"y+=+-x+%2B+6\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Vertices are at (\"h%2B-a\",\"k\")\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "so, \"k=0\" \r
