A hyperbola is the focus of all points in a plane such that the absolute value of the differences of the distances from 2 foci is constant.
The absolute value of the differences between the distances from any point to the foci is 2a.
Formula for a horizontal hyperbola:
(x-h) ² - (y-k) ²
 a ²         b ²
Formula for a vertical hyperbola:
(y-k) ² - (x-h) ²
 a ²         b ²

A catchy song isn´t it? 
If you still feel like needing more practice, hear this song from math students.
Shoutout to Kerrigan Nery... Great song!!!

Conic Sections shown above. 
A conic section is the figure formed when a plane intersects a double-napped right cone.
Diferent types of conic sections:
       Parabola
       Hyperbola
       Ellipse
       Circle
For more information about conic sections, keep viewing the blog.

A parabola represents the locus of points in a plane that are equidistant from a fixed point (focus) , and a specific line (directrix).

To further understand how to graph a Parabola watch the video!
Enjoy :)

A circle is an ellipse, a focus of points in a plane such that the sum of the distances from two fixed points is constant, with an eccentricity of 0.
How can you identify a circle just by the general form and graph it? Here’s the way! ;)
