Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
you have a right triangle
to find the missing length(x) you will use
a^2+b^2=c^2
where c is the hypotenuse
49^2=25^2+x
x^2=49^2-25^2=2401-625=1776
x==42.1

Please see the attached figure. This is how you draw a hyperbola. Its general formula is:
(x-h)²/a² - (y-k)²/b² = 1, where
(h,k) is the center
a is the semi-major axis
b is the semi-minor axis
The given equation is
(x+4)²/16 - (y+3)²/25 = 1
So, from the general form we can deduce that,
Center(-4,-3)
a = 4
b = 5
So, the first point we can plot is the centerpoint. Next, you draw the two intersecting lines. Their slopes are +/- b/a. Thus, it corresponds to +/- 5/4. Using this slope, we can find the equation of the two lines by using the slope and the center.
-3 = +5/4 (-4) + b ---> b= 2
-3 = -5/4 (-4) + b ---> b= -8
So, you plot the equations y=5/4x + 2 and y = -5/4 x -8 by assigning values of x and plotting them against y. Then, the vertex of the hyperbolas are 4 units from the center, denoted by the green dots. The hyperbola is shown in the next picture.
