Question 694202
Use the information provided to write the standard form equation of each hyperbola. Vertices: (-2, 8), (-2,-2) Endpoints of Conjugate Axis:(8,3) (-12,3)
**
This is a hyperbola with vertical transverse axis (y-coordinates of vertices change but x-coordinates do not)
Its standard form of equation: {{{(y-k)^2/a^2-(x-h)^2/b^2=1}}}, (h,k)=(x,y) coordinates of center
For given hyperbola:
center: (-2,3) (midpoints of changing x and y-coordinates)
length of vertical transverse axis=10(-2 to 8)=2a
a=5
a^2=25
length of conjugate axis=20 (-12 to 8)=2b
b=10
b^2=100
Equation of given hyperbola:{{{(y-3)^2/25-(x+2)^2/100=1}}}
