It would be great if, within the unit on hyperbolae and their foci (Conic sections), we could SEE what length "b" from the equations x^2/a^2 - y^2/b^2 is on the graph. Length "a" is clearly shown as the distance from the vertex to the center, but length "b" is not graphically represented.

I was curious myself, I have missed that information in the video as well. Here is a Geogebra file I created to visualize the graphical Relationship of b. You can switch between two different representations by toggeling the checkbox.
