Question

What is the length of the transverse axis?
((y-2)^2/16)-((x+1)^2/144)=1

Answer 1

f2-f1=2a
i think I have to find 2a (transverse axis)

Answer 2

you mean the length of the y-axis that intersects the graph?

Answer 3

well the question is
What is the length of the transverse axis?
((y-2)^2/16)-((x+1)^2/144)=1

Answer 4

hehe, my english vocabulary is a bit limited sometimes to be honest, the way I understood it, one axis that transverses the graph is the y-axis

Answer 5

or maybe I understand the english word wrong, it could also be the middle line x-respective that is in between the graph.

Answer 6

lol well the transverse axis is the distance between one side of the hyperbola to the other i think...

Answer 7

i too forgot what transverse axis is called
