This GeoGebra applet demonstrates how the shape of a hyperbola is affected by the focal distance and the distance between the focal points. Key mathematical concepts include the definition and geometric properties of hyperbolas. Using commands like Hyperbola, Segment, and Asymptote, users can dynamically adjust parameters and observe changes in the hyperbola. Suitable for high school mathematics education and learning.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Hyperbola(A, B, diff) → c
  2. Segment(A, B) → a
  3. Asymptote(c) → b, d
