n Art. 22, enables us to drawa tangent to an hyperbola, at a given point of the curve. Let (7 be the centre of the hy-perbola, AB its transverse axis,and P the given point of thecurve at which the tangent is tobe drawn. Through P, draw the serai-diameter PC, and through A, draw the supplementary… … 24. The property proved in Art. 20, enables us to drawa tangent to an hyperbola, through a given point withoutthe curve. Let H be the given point.With this point as a centre,and IIF^ as a radius, describethe arc of a circle. WithF\ as a centre, and a radiusequal to the transverse axis,describe the…
