The equation of the hyperbola with foci (-2, 0), (2, 0), and vertices, (-1, 0), (1, 0) is [tex] \underline{\frac{ {x}^{2} }{ {1}^{2} } - \frac{ {y}^{2} }{ 3} } = 1[/tex]

Which method is used to find the equation of the parabola?

The general form of the equation of an hyperbola is presented as follows;

[tex] \frac{ {x}^{2} }{ {a}^{2} } - \frac{ {y}^{2} }{ {b}^{2} } = 1[/tex]

Where a is obtained from the vertex written as (-a, 0), (a, 0)

The given vertex are (-1, 0), (1, 0), which gives;

a = 1

The general form of the foci of a hyperbola are; (-c, 0), (c, 0)

The given foci of the hyperbola are; (-2, 0), (2, 0)

Where;

  • c² = a² + b²

Therefore;

  • b² = c² - a²

By comparison, we have;

c² = 2²

Which gives;

  • b² = 2² - 1² = 3

The equation of the hyperbola is therefore;

[tex] \underline{\frac{ {x}^{2} }{ {1}^{2} } - \frac{ {y}^{2} }{ 3} } = 1[/tex]
