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 Transverse Axis of the Hyperbola and how is it calculated?

The transverse axis is actually the major axis of the Hyperbola. It is the line segment that passes through the center of the Hyperbola and has vertices as its endpoints. It is double the semi-transverse axis of the Hyperbola, and it is denoted by 2a. And a denotes the semi-transverse axis of the Hyperbola, which has more role in the formulas.
