What is a hyperbola?
Answer
A hyperbola is a conic section formed by plane intersections. This is done to split a cone in halves creating two distinct, unbound and mirror image curves. Hyperbolas can be defined as a set of points with the difference is between distance of two fixed foci is constant. The key properties of the hyperbola is that it includes a center, vertices, two branches, and two asymptotes that curves when approached.
