What is Hyperbola?

A Hyperbola is a type of conic section, which is a geometric figure that results from intersecting a cone with a plane. A Hyperbola is defined as the set of all points in a plane, the difference of whose distances from two fixed points (called the foci) is constant. In other words, a Hyperbola is the locus of points where the difference between the distances to two fixed points is a constant value. The standard form of the equation for a Hyperbola is: (x - h)²/a² - (y - k)²/b² = 1

What is Latus Rectum of Hyperbola and how is it calculated?

The latus rectum of Hyperbola denoted by 2l, is any of the chords parallel to the directrix and passing through a focus. It's half-length is the semi latus rectum and denoted by l. It is calculated by the formula 2l = 2b²/a where l is the semi-latus rectum of the hyperbola, b is the semi conjugate axis of the Hyperbola and a is the semi transverse axis of the Hyperbola.
