You can find hyperbolas in many places. One place I have found them is in the traffic regulatory sign r3-9a. Another place is the cooling tower of a nuclear power plant you might have to look at for a while to see it.

What are some real world examples of conic sections?
Hyperbola = sundial Ellipse = football
Find an equation for the hyperbola with foci and asymptotes?
find the constant difference for a hyperbola with foci f1 (5,0) and f2(5,0) and the point on the hyperbola (1,0).
What is the definition and equation of rectangular hyperbola?
Defn: A hyperbola is said to be a rectangular hyperbola if its asymptotes are at right angles. Std Eqn: The standard rectangular hyperbola xy = c2
What is the slope of a hyperbola?
there is only one way i know how to find the slope of a hyperbola and that is taking the implicit derivative of its equation, and solving for dy/dx but the answer is Slope= (x)*(b^2) / (y)*(a^2)
What major difference between the equation for a hyperbola and for an ellipse is the operation performed The terms in the equation of an are subtracted?
hyperbola

What do you called to the graph of a cubic function?
hyperbola * * * * * A hyperbola is not a cubic function. A cubic function is of the form y = ax3 + bx2 + cx + d where a, b, c and d are real constants and a is not 0. A hyperbola is a functon of the form y = 1/x : quite different.
What are the followings-hyberbola-asymptotes of hyperbola-centre of hyperbola-conjugated diameter of hyperbola-diameter of hyperbola-directrices of hyperbola-eccentricity of hyperbola?
Asymptotes are the guidelines that a hyperbola follows. They form an X and the hyperbola always gets closer to them but never touches them. If the transverse axis of your hyperbola is horizontal, the slopes of your asymptotes are + or - b/a. If the transverse axis is vertical, the slopes are + or - a/b. The center of a hyperbola is (h,k). I don't know what the rest of your questions are, though.

Defn: A hyperbola is said to be a rectangular hyperbola if its asymptotes are at right angles. Std Eqn: The standard rectangular hyperbola xy = c2
How do you find the domain and range of a hyperbola?
the domain is when the denominator of the problem is set to zero... but i am not sure how to find the range
Show me a real life hyperbolas application?
The arc of a football when it is kicked is a hyperbola. The arch of a water spout from a hose. Some think the gateway arch is a hyperbola but it is a centenary arch which is close but just a little different.
How many foci does the graph of a hyperbola have?
Two foci's are found on a hyperbola graph.
What are the slopes of the hyperbola's asymptotes?
If a hyperbola is vertical, the asymptotes have a slope of m = +- a/b. If a hyperbola is horizontal, the asymptotes have a slope of m = +- b/a.
There is a relationship between the denominators in the hyperbola's equation and the equations for the hyperbola's?
denominators
