The general form for a hyperbola with the center at the origin and a vertical transverse axis is:
y2/a2 - x2/b2 = 1

From the given:
a = 12

To get b, we use the given distance between the foci.Since it's 26,
c = 26/2 = 13

Using this defintion:
c2 = a2 + b2
b = sqrt(c2 - a2) = sqrt (13^2 - 12^2) = 5

The equation therefore is:
y2/13^2 - x2/5^2 = 1
or
y2/169 - x2/25 = 1

Answer:

75

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a triangle is <em>l </em>x <em>w </em>(length x width)

That's 4 cm x 12 cm. Now you could go ahead and figure it out from there, but you have to remember it wants the answer in meters. It tells us that for every 4cm, it is 5m. The easiest way to figure this out is to convert to meters before multiplying. Since 4 cm is 5m, the <em>l </em>becomes 5m. 4 goes into 12 three times. So we would do 5 x 3 to get 15m for the new <em>w. </em>Now we can solve for area.

<em>l </em>x <em>w </em>= A

5m x 15m = A

75m = A

I hope this helped :)
