vertices (23,0) and (-23,0), conjugate axis of 4 units.
**
Standard form of equation for a hyperbola with horizontal transverse axis:
 , (h,k)=(x,y) coodinates of center
For given problem:
center:(0,0)
length of horizontal transverse axis=46 (-23 to 23)=2a
a=23
a^2=529
..
length of conjugate axis=4=2b
b=2
b^2=4
..
