Which statements about the hyperbola are true? Check all that apply.
There is a vertex at (-3, 6).
The center of the hyperbola is at (-3,5).
There is a vertex at (-5,5).
The transverse axis is vertical.
The directrices are horizontal lines

Options (1), (2), (4) and (5) are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Characteristics of the given hyperbola,

1). Vertex of the given hyperbola are at (-3, 6) and (-3, 4).

2). Since center of a hyperbola is the center of a line joining vertices of the hyperbola,

Center of the given parabola will be,

⇒ (-3, 5)

3). Vertical line joining the foci of the hyperbola is the transverse axis.

4). A line perpendicular to the transverse axis and passing through the center will be the conjugate axis.

5). Directrices of a horizontal hyperbola are the horizontal lines.

Therefore, Options (1), (2), (4) and (5) are correct.
