Instructions

Choose initial sizes & distance between circle centers

Description

A hyperbola can be defined as intersection points between two growing circles of different sizes Each circle is x² + y² = r² (with different r sizes for the two circles) It's a case of the ellipse x²/a² + y²/b² = 1 where a=b in the case of a circle Hyperbola: x²/a² - y²/b² = 1 That might give you an intuition of how hyperbolas relate to circle intersections Works when growth rates are the same, try 1, otherwise you can get other shapes Set x distance large enough to avoid overlap before start
