  2. Hyperbola - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbola

    This equation is called the canonical form of a hyperbola, because any hyperbola, regardless of its orientation relative to the Cartesian axes and regardless of the location of its center, can be transformed to this form by a change of variables, giving a hyperbola that is congruent to the original (see below).

  3. Elementary function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elementary_function

    In mathematics, an elementary function is a function of a single variable (typically real or complex) that is defined as taking sums, products, roots and compositions of finitely many polynomial, rational, trigonometric, hyperbolic, and exponential functions, and their inverses (e.g., arcsin, log, or x 1/n).

  4. Hyperbolic functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_functions

    A ray through the unit hyperbola x 2 − y 2 = 1 at the point (cosh a, sinh a), where a is twice the area between the ray, the hyperbola, and the x-axis. For points on the hyperbola below the x-axis, the area is considered negative (see animated version with comparison with the trigonometric (circular) functions).

  5. Elementary algebra - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elementary_algebra

    This equation states that , representing the square of the length of the side that is the hypotenuse, the side opposite the right angle, is equal to the sum (addition) of the squares of the other two sides whose lengths are represented by a and b. An equation is the claim that two expressions have the same value and are equal.

  6. Hyperbolic angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_angle

    In mathematics, hyperbolic angle is an invariant measure as it is preserved under hyperbolic rotation. The hyperbola xy = 1 is rectangular with semi-major axis 2 {\displaystyle {\sqrt {2}}} , analogous to the circular angle equaling the area of a circular sector in a circle with radius 2 {\displaystyle {\sqrt {2}}} .

  7. Principal axis theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principal_axis_theorem

    The equation is for an ellipse, since both eigenvalues are positive. (Otherwise, if one were positive and the other negative, it would be a hyperbola.) The principal axes are the lines spanned by the eigenvectors. The minimum and maximum distances to the origin can be read off the equation in diagonal form.

  9. Pell's equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pell's_equation

    Pell's equation, also called the Pell–Fermat equation, is any Diophantine equation of the form =, where n is a given positive nonsquare integer, and integer solutions are sought for x and y. In Cartesian coordinates , the equation is represented by a hyperbola ; solutions occur wherever the curve passes through a point whose x and y ...
