ts and number the division-points from A to B, from A to C,and from C to B. The lines joining equal numbers on AC andCB are tangents of the required parabola, and the perpendicularsfrom corresponding equal division-points on AB cut tfiese tangentsin their points of tangency. 5. Construction of an… … Fig. 58. In this case the Brianchon points are infinitely distant. Hence,drawing through A and B two parallel lines in any direction,cutting the asymptotes at C and D, the line joining C with Dwill be a required tangent of the hyperbola. To study the metricalrelations of this hyperbola, we have…
