\[\frac{x^2}{1} - \frac{y^2}{4}?\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
=1 yes
OpenStudy (lgbasallote):
and the question is..?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
identify the vertices and foci?
OpenStudy (lgbasallote):
@waterineyes you're good in algebra...some assitance please?

@sharee2012 Are you doing Hyperbola??
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes

okay than :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Can you here identify the a..
By comparing it with the standard equation of hyperbola?/
Equation is:
\[\frac{x^2}{a^2} - \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1\]
Tell me what is \(a\) here??
OpenStudy (anonymous):
16
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i mean 1
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yes it is one..
So, firstly Coordinates of the Vertices are given by: (a, 0) and (-a, 0)..
Can you know find coordinates of Vertices??
Still Need Help?

2 and sqrt4
OpenStudy (anonymous):
How??
OpenStudy (anonymous):
im not sure i see this on notes -_-
OpenStudy (anonymous):
You have a = 1..
coordinates are : (a,0) and (-a,0)
just place the value of a in the ordered pairs..
OpenStudy (anonymous):
What are you looking for..
I give you one example then you will do it..
If I have a = 5 then coordinates of vertices would be:
(5,0) and (-5,0)
Now you have a = 1 can you solve it now??
