If Jay arranged the fence into a square each side would be 4.5 ft .
What information is givin to you to get that awnser?
The standard form of a hyperbola is <span><span><span>x2/</span><span>a2 </span></span>− y<span><span>2/ </span><span>b2 = 1
the tangent line is the first derivative of the function</span></span></span><span>y′ = <span>b^2x/ a^2 y
hence the slope is </span></span><span>m = <span>b^2 x0 / <span>a^2 <span>x1
</span></span></span></span>Therefore the equation of the tangent line isy−x1 = b^2 x0 / a^2 x1* (x−x0)
