Graphing a Conic Section

198

• A hyperbola is the locus of points related to two given points F and F' such

that the difference in distances of each point from the two given points is

constant.

Points F and F' are the "foci," points A and A' where the hyperbola intersects

the x-axis are the "vertexes," the x-coordinate values of vertexes A and A' are

called x-intercepts, the y-coordinate values of vertexes A and A' are called y-

intercepts, and straight lines l and l' , which get closer to the hyperbola as

they move away from the foci are "asymptotes."
