You can put this solution on YOUR website! Center (1, -2) , transverse axis parallel to the x-axis, Transverse axis = 6, conjugate axis = 10. Find the equation of the hyperbola.
***
Standard form of equation for a hyperbola with horizontal transverse axis:
 , (h,k)=(x,y)coordinates of center
center:(1,-2) (given)
tranverse axis=6=2a
a=3
a^2=9
conjugate axis=10=2b
b=5
b^2=25
