Find the centre, the foci, and the asymptotes of the hyperbola 4x2 - 9y2 -16x - 54y = 101.
4x2 - 9y2 -16x - 54y = 101
=> 4(x2 - 4x + 4) - 9(y2 + 6y + 9) + 65 = 101
=> 4(x - 2)2 - 9(y + 3)2 = 36
=> - = 1
=> - = 1
thus centre = (2, -3)
foci = (2+, -3) & (2-, -3) = (2+, -3) & (2-, -3) = (5.6055, -3) & (-1.6055, -3)
asymptotes : y = -3 + *(x-2) & y = -3 - *(x-2)
thus asymptotes are y = - & y = - -
