Question

1. choose the best answer.

one of two points of a hyperbola closest to the center is the __ of a hyperbola.
focus
conjugate
asymptote
vertex

Explanation:

• Focus: The foci of a hyperbola are located outside the hyperbola and are farther from the center than the vertices.
• Conjugate: The term "conjugate" in hyperbola (e.g., conjugate axis) is not a point.
• Asymptote: Asymptotes are lines that the hyperbola approaches but are not points on the hyperbola.
• Vertex: The vertices of a hyperbola are the two points on the hyperbola that are closest to the center.

Answer:

vertex
