EBK DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS AND LINEAR A
- By definition, a hyperbola is the locus of points whose positive difference of distances from two fixed points F1 and F2 called foci is constant. In the grid provided, find points whose difference of distances from points F15, 0 and F2-5, 0 is 6. That is, locate some points for which PF1-PF2=6 or PF2-PF1=6; point P3, 0 is one such point. Then sketch the hyperbola.arrow_forwardSoftball and Rectangular Coordinates If a coordinate system is superimposed on the softball diamond in Problem 42 with the x-axis along the line from home plate to first base and the y-axis on the line from home plate to third base, what would be the coordinates of home plate, first base, second base, and third base?arrow_forwardAnswer in 10 min plzarrow_forward
