Hyperbola

Hyperbola is the locus of all the points in a plane such that the difference in their distances from two fixed points in the plane is constant.

Hyperbola is made up of two similar curves that resemble a parabola. Hyperbola has two fixed points which can be shown in the picture, are known as foci or focus. When we join the foci or focus using a line segment then its midpoint gives us centre. Hence, this line segment is known as the transverse axis.
