Lesson
The Hyperbola

Introduction
Hyperbolas are one of the four conic sections and are described by certain
kinds of equations. It is the set of all points (x,y) in the plane such that the
difference of the distances between (x,y) and the foci is a positive constant. Also,
a hyperbola is a conic section that intersecting in a right circular cone with the
plane at an angle such that both halves of the cone are intersected. The
intersection produces two separate unbounded curves that are mirror images of
each other.

What is It
Similarly in definition, F1 and F2 be two distinct points. All set points P, whose
distances from F1 and from F2 differ by a certain constant that called a hyperbola.
Foci of a hyperbola are the points F1 and F2 .
9
To simplify in algebraic manipulations allow us to rewrite this into:
x2 y 2
1, where b c 2 a 2
a 2 b2
When we let b c 2 a 2 , we assumed c > a.
To see why this is true, suppose that P is closer to F2, so P F1 − P F2 = 2a.
Suppose also that P is not on the x-axis, so P F1F2 is formed. From the triangle
inequality, F1F2 + P F2 > P F1. Thus, 2c > P F1 − P F2 = 2a, so c > a.
P F1 = 2a + P F2 .
Then, cx − a2 = a √ (x − c)2 + y2
Simplify ( c2 − a2 ) x2 − a2 y2 = a2 ( c2 − a2 )
by letting b = √ c 2 − a 2 > 0

More Properties of Hyperbolas
Vertices are the points on the hyperbola, collinear with the center and foci.
Thus; if y = 0, then x = ± a. In each vertex is a units away from the center.
The segment V1V2 is called the transverse axis. Its length is 2a.
b b
D. Asymptotes: y x and y x .
a a
• The two lines passing through the center which serve as a guide in graphing the
hyperbola are called asymptotes. In each branch of the hyperbola gets closer and
closer to the asymptotes, in the direction towards which the branch extends.
12
• In the illustration above, we point out that the asymptotes are the extended
diagonals of the auxiliary rectangle drawn in. Auxiliary rectangle has sides 2a
and 2b with its diagonals intersecting at the center C. Two sides are congruent and
parallel to the transverse axis V1V2. Then the other two sides are congruent and
parallel to the conjugate axis, the segment shown which is perpendicular to the
transverse axis at the center, and has length 2b.
E. Transverse axis is the axis that passes through the foci, vertices, and the center
of the hyperbola; while the conjugate axis is the one that is perpendicular to the
transverse axis.
F. The eccentricity of a hyperbola is the ratio of the distance to the focus to the
distance to the directrix.
• Since a > c and D > a, then the eccentricity of a hyperbola is always greater than
