Question: what is the difference between a vertical hyperbola and a horizontal hyperbola graph?
Answer: A horizontal hyperbola has its transverse axis at y = v and its conjugate axis at x = h; a vertical hyperbola has its transverse axis at x = h and its conjugate axis at y = v. You can see the two types of hyperbolas in the above figure: a horizontal hyperbola on the left, and a vertical one on the right.
