No 1+2=3 which is less than 5
The two sides must equal more than the third one when added
<span>Standard Form of an Equation of an Hyperbola opening up and down is:
(y-k)^2 / b^2 - (x-h)^2 / a^2 = 1
</span><span>where Pt(h,k) is a center with vertices 'b' units up and down from center.
</span><span>vertices: vertices: (0,+-2) b = 2 AND Center is (0,-0)
(y)^2/4-(x)^2/a^2=1
</span><span>foci: (0,+-7)
a^2 = 24
square root of 4 + a^2 = 5.29
4 + 5.29 = 9.29
y^2 / 4 - x^2 / 24 = 1</span>
