Question 874607: write the equation of the hyperbola with a center at (0,0) co-vertices along the minor axis at (-10,0) and (10,0) and major axis with a length of 10. Answer by josgarithmetic(39620) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Major axis, referring maybe to the a value for the distance from center to either vertex? This length 10 means a=5.
In your example, center at origin, h=0 and k=0, so having b=sqrt(10), referring to minor axis,
