Question

How do I find the coordinates of the vertex of a parabola? Also How do I find the Foci?

Answer 1

Complete The Square Method.

Answer 2

the vertex is the highest or the lowest point of a parabola
in the form \(f(x) = a(x-h) + k \) (h, k) is the vertex on condition that a is not equal to zero

Answer 3

What is the parabola form? particular problem, please

Answer 4

OMG wow I meant to say hyperbola

Answer 5

well that's a different story...

Answer 6

and the equation given is x^2/16 - y^2/25 =1

Answer 7

I don't think there is a vertex...

Answer 8

well there are vertices

Answer 9

because with a hyperbola there are basically two parabolas

Answer 10

dy/dx*

Answer 11

YOur hyperbola has the form \(\dfrac{x^2}{a^2}-\dfrac{y^2}{b^2}=1\) where \(a^2 = 16\) and \(b^2 = 25\)

Answer 12

hence, its graph is
