Hyperbolas. Like vertices of an ellipse. asymptote. asymptote. Must make it equal to 1. We know it’s a hyperbola because of subtraction. We know it’s a vertical parabola (vertices on y-axis) because the y is positive. Vertices are at (0, 2) and (0, -2).

Must make it equal to 1. We know it’s a hyperbola because of subtraction. We know it’s a vertical parabola (vertices on y-axis) because the y is positive.
Vertices are at (0, 2) and (0, -2) Create the “box” which will help us graph the hyperbola. Asymptotes from the diagonals of the box We start the graph just like we do and ellipse. Remember that SLOPE is ALWAYS y/x so the number under the y2 is ALWAYS the numerator.
