Find an equation in standard form for the hyperbola with vertices at (0, ±2) and foci at (0, ±11). http://prntscr.com/6sod2z

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

is it C?

OpenStudy (lυἶცἶ0210):

Give me a sec to re-familiarize myself with this xD

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

A and D are the only correct answers. Because B and C are wrong because of the denominators.

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

Not sure between A and D. *does a little more research*

OpenStudy (sleepyjess):

what's wrong with the denominators?

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

The denominators have to add upto the y-calue of the foci squared.

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

value*

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

\(\sf\Large \frac{Y^2}{a^2}-\frac{X^2}{b^2}=1\) \(\sf a^2+b^2=c^2\) Foci is \(\sf (0,\pm c)\)

Nnesha (nnesha):

if x comes first then hyperboaobla is horizontal and if y comes first then hyperobolbla is vertical foci for horizontal \[\large\rm (h \pm c ,k)\] and for vertical \[\large\rm (h , k \pm c)\]

Nnesha (nnesha):

hmmm olol

ohhh!!! thanks o^_^o
