Question 672396
what is the length of the transverse axis of the hyperbola defined by the equation below:
(x-3)^2/4^2-(y+5)^2/2^2=1
This is an equation of a hyperbola with horizontal transverse axis.
Its standard form:{{{(x-h)^2/a^2-(y-k)^2/b^2=1}}}
For given equation:{{{(x-3)^2/4^2-(y+5)^2/2^2=1}}}
a=4
length of horizontal transverse axis=2a=8
