Question

Find an equation that models a hyperbolic lens with a = 16 inches and foci that are 40 inches apart. Assume that the center of the hyperbola is the origin and the transverse axis is vertical.

Answer 1

@ankit042 no one is helping ;(

Answer 2

c=40
a=16
c^2 = a^2+b^2
so b =3
now as transverse axis is vertical
y^2/16 - x^2/9 =1

Answer 3

i think that kinda makes sense

Answer 4

k good!

Answer 5

thanks :)

Answer 6

do you remember the answer? @tester97
