The vertices of a hyperbola are the two points closest to each other. For hyperbola that is centered at the origin (0,0) the vertices are (a,0) and (-a,0) a) What is 'a' for this hyperbola?

b) The slope for the asymptotes for a horizontal hyperbola are equal to b/a and -b/a.
Use the graph to calculate the slope (as a fraction) for the asymptote with a positive slope. (Use rise/run).

c) Use the slope of the asymptote to find the 'b' value.

d) What is the equation for this hyperbola?
