Module 1 : Introduction and geometric constructions

Lecture 9 : Engineering curves: Hyperbola

 

Constructing a Hyperbola (Eccentricity Method)
Construction of hyperbola by eccentricity method is similar to ellipse and parabola
Construction of a hyperbola by eccentricity method is illustrated in figure 3, where the eccentricity, e = 3/2 and the distance of the focus from the directrix = 50 mm.
