4 Hyperbola HK

Hyperbola Centered at (h,k)
A hyperbola does not always have to be

placed with its center at the origin. If the
center is (h,k) the entire ellipse will be
shifted h units to the left or right and k units up
or down.
Asymptotes
A line that continually approaches a given curve but does not
meet it at any finite distance.
There are three types: horizontal, vertical and oblique:

The Standard Form of the Hyperbola with Centre (h, k)

Where c is the distance from the center to a focus point.
The equations of the asymptotes are
y =b/a (x h) + k and y = -b/a (x h) + k

"a" is the number in the denominator of the positive term
If the x-term is positive, then the hyperbola is horizontal

Writing the Equation of a Hyperbola
Write the equation of the hyperbola with centre at (2, -3), one
vertex at (6, -3), and the coordinates of one focus at (-3, -3).
The centre is (2, -3), so h = 2, k = -3.
The distance from the centre to the vertex is 4 units, so a = 4.
The distance from the centre to the foci is 5 units, so c = 5.
