PlotHyperbola

Plot hyperbolas with configurable parameters.

Description

This function plots hyperbolas with configurable centre position, foci positions, transverse and conjugate axis lengths, limit of major axis, and rotation angle.

Syntax

• PlotHyperbola plots default hyperbola.
• PlotHyperbola(Name,Value) specifies parameters using name-value pair arguments.
• B = PlotHyperbola(___) returns an 4-D array of 2-by-N-by-2. The third dimension reperents the branch number. The second dimension represents the point number on each branch. The first dimension represents the 2-D coordinates of each point.

Input Name-Value Pair Arguments

• Centre - The centre coordinates of the hyperbola, specified as a 2-D vector. Default [0,0].
• a - Length of half transverse axis. Default 1.
• b - Length of half conjugate axis. Default 0.25.
• MajorAxis - Major axis, 'x' or 'y'. Default 'x'.
• N - The number of points to plot. Default 1000.
• Rotation - Counter-clockwise rotation in degrees. Default 0.
• MajorLim - Limit of major axis. Default 2a, i.e., the length of transverse axis.
• Plot - Flag indicating whether plot the hyperbola. Default true.
• axes - Handle of axes to plot on. When not specified, the function will create one
• Foci - A cell array of foci positions. Each cell contains the 2-D coordinates of a focus. When this parameter is specified, the funciton uses Foci along with a to compute and overwrite Centre, Rotation, and b.
