Hyperbola

Question 1:
Write the equation in standard form for the hyperbola:

9𝑥 2 + 18𝑥 − 𝑦 2 + 4𝑦 − 4 = 0

Can you find the center and focal points of this hyperbola?
Also graph this hyperbola.
Hint: use complete squares on 𝑥 and 𝑦 terms separately.

Trigonometry

Basic definition:
In a right angled triangle, the following trigonometric functions are defined as:

𝑂𝑝𝑝𝑜𝑠𝑖𝑡𝑒 𝑎
sin 𝜃 = =
𝐻𝑦𝑝𝑜𝑡𝑒𝑛𝑢𝑠𝑒 𝑐
𝐴𝑑𝑗𝑎𝑐𝑒𝑛𝑡 𝑏
cos 𝜃 = =
𝐻𝑦𝑝𝑜𝑡𝑒𝑛𝑢𝑠𝑒 𝑐
𝑂𝑝𝑝𝑜𝑠𝑖𝑡𝑒 𝑎
tan 𝜃 = =
𝐴𝑑𝑗𝑎𝑐𝑒𝑛𝑡 𝑏
Question 2:
From the top of a cliff 200 meters high, the angles of depression of two fishing
boats in the same line of sight on the water are 13 degrees and 15 degrees.
How far apart are the boats? (Round your answer to 2 significant digits)
