question 30

Multiple Choice

Find the equation of the hyperbola with center $( 1,3 ) , a = 2$ and $b = 4$ . Transverse axis is horizontal.

• A)
• \[\frac { ( x - 1 ) ^ { 2 } } { 4 } - \frac { ( y - 3 ) ^ { 2 } } { 16 } = 1\]
• B)
• \[\frac { ( x - 2 ) ^ { 2 } } { 2 } - \frac { ( y - 3 ) ^ { 2 } } { 16 } = 1\]
• C)
• \[\frac { ( x + 1 ) ^ { 2 } } { 4 } - \frac { ( y + 3 ) ^ { 2 } } { 16 } = 1\]
• D)
• \[\frac { ( x - 1 ) ^ { 2 } } { 4 } + \frac { ( y - 3 ) ^ { 2 } } { 16 } = 1\]
