Math Problem Statement
Solution
To solve the problem of finding the equation of the hyperbola given:
- Foci: and ,
- Asymptotes: and ,
We proceed as follows:
Step 1: Key characteristics of the hyperbola
-
The center of the hyperbola is the midpoint of the foci:
-
The slopes of the asymptotes indicate that this is a hyperbola whose axes are tilted (rotated from the standard orientation). The slopes match the general form of a hyperbola's asymptotes.
Step 2: Rotation and general hyperbola equation
The general equation of a rotated hyperbola is: where (since the hyperbola is rotated).
Step 3: Using asymptotes and simplifying
The asymptotes are given as:
These correspond to the equations of the asymptotes:
The product of these asymptotes gives the equation of the hyperbola in the rotated form:
Expanding:
