For ellipses, you have two axis, a major and a minor . the major axis is always the longer of the two ( see video, starts on ellipses).
For Hyperbolas, you also have two axis, a transverse axis and a conjugate axis. ( see video, after ellipses)
Transverse axis
-connects verticies
-not always longer than conjugate axis
- length is alwas 2a units (a+a)
- there for length of conjugate is always 2b units (b+b)
