OpenStudy (anonymous):

whats it called though?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

hyperbola

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

and notice that it is sleeping along x axis

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so is it b horizontal?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

it would be C

OpenStudy (anonymous):

why c? it never touches the y axis? just trying to understand

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

C says horizontal right ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ya but i thought horizontal would go across the y axis?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

horizontal axis is `x` axis

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

vertical axis is `y` axis

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

the axis of hyperbola is the line that passes through vertex points

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

since x axis is passing throught the vertex points, we call it a horizontal hyperbola
