Find the Center x^2-y^2=20.25

$x^{2} - y^{2} = 20.25$

Step 1

Find the standard form of the hyperbola.

Divide each term by $20.25$ to make the right side equal to one.

$\frac{x^{2}}{20.25} - \frac{y^{2}}{20.25} = \frac{20.25}{20.25}$

Simplify each term in the equation in order to set the right side equal to $1$ . The standard form of an ellipse or hyperbola requires the right side of the equation be $1$ .

$\frac{x^{2}}{\frac{1}{0.04938271}} - \frac{y^{2}}{\frac{1}{0.04938271}} = 1$

Step 2

This is the form of a hyperbola. Use this form to determine the values used to find vertices and asymptotes of the hyperbola.

$\frac{{(x - h)}^{2}}{a^{2}} - \frac{{(y - k)}^{2}}{b^{2}} = 1$

Step 3

Match the values in this hyperbola to those of the standard form. The variable $h$ represents the x-offset from the origin, $k$ represents the y-offset from origin, $a$ .

$a = 4.5$

$b = 4.5$

$k = 0$

$h = 0$

Step 4

The center of a hyperbola follows the form of $(h, k)$ . Substitute in the values of $h$ and $k$ .

$(0, 0)$

Step 5

Find the Center x^2-y^2=20.25
