Hi I need help with a hyperbole
I have to find te equation of the hyperbole with the next data:
The vertex are B(3,4) and B'(3,-4) also the focal points are F(0,0) and F'(6,0)
That is not a hyperbole no?
Or at least it is rotated

A person told me this is wrong because it is not colinear or something similar.

You are correct. This is not a hyperbola.

#

(Hyperbole is a literary term.)

#

Indeed, the focal points and vertices must all be collinear.

Okay thank, the task is wrong because In the original data was " The next hyperbola..."
