• A) vertices: \(( 0 , \pm 2 )\) ; Foci: \(( 0 , \pm \sqrt { 5 } )\) ; Length of transverse axis: 4; Length of conjugate axis: 2; Eccentricity: \(\frac { \sqrt { 5 } } { 2 }\) Asymptotes: \(y = \pm 2 x\) .
• B) vertices: \(( 0 , \pm 1 )\) ; Foci: \(( 0 , \pm \sqrt { 5 } )\) ; Length of transverse axis: 2; Length of conjugate axis: 4; Eccentricity: \(\sqrt { 5 }\) ; Asymptotes: \(y = \pm \frac { 1 } { 2 } x\) .
• C) vertices:\(( \pm 2,0 )\) ; Foci: \(( \pm \sqrt { 5 } , 0 )\) ; Length of transverse axis: 4; Length of conjugate axis: 2; Eccentricity: \(\frac { \sqrt { 5 } } { 2 }\) Asymptotes: \(y = \pm \frac { 1 } { 2 } x\) .
