hyperbola with the given characterstics. center(1‚3) one focus(1‚-14) one vertex (1‚18) the answer is (y-3)^2/225 - (x-1)^/64=1 Why!? And HOW Answers:The center is (1‚3) because (y-k)^2/a^2-(x-h)^2/b^2=1 is the form of a hyperbola. (h‚k) is the center. The denominator is also larger for the fraction with the y variable‚ so it is a vertical hyperbola. Foci=(h‚k+/-c) c=sqrt (a^2+b^2) a^2=225 b^2=64 c=sqrt289 c=-17 or 17 Add c to the y value or the center since this is a vertical hyperbola. (1‚3+(-17)=(1
