Some examples of geometric constraints include parallelism, perpendicularity, concentricity and symmetry. Parallelism occurs when two or more lines or axes of curves are equidistant from each other. Perpendicularity is a constraint in which lines or axes of curves intersect at right angles.
Answer: see below
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
1) Foci is plural for Focus. Since a hyperbola has two focus points, they are referred to as foci. The foci is where the sum of the distances from any point on the curve to the foci is constant.
2) When determining the equation of a hyperbola you need the following:
a) does the hyperbola open up or to the right?
b) what is the center (h, k) of the hyperbola?
c) What is the slope of the asymptotes of the hyperbola?
3) The equation of a hyperbola is:

- (h, k) is the center of the hyperbola
- ± b/a is the slope of the line of the asymptotes
- The equation starts with the "x" if it opens to the right and "y" if it opens up
Yes! The lengths of each side must be less than the sum of the other two lengths. It looks like this:
4+4>7
7+4>4
4+7>4
