Hyperbolas have many uses, both mathematical and practical. The hyperbola y = 1/x is sometimes used in the definition of the natural logarithm. In Figure 6 the logarithm of a number n is represented by the shaded area, that is, by the area bounded by the x-axis, the line x = 1, the line x = n, and the hyperbola.

There are many natural phenomena that involve hyperbolas. ... This system uses the time difference between the receipts of radio signals from two different stations to geographically fix the location of the receiver on the hyperbola. Because exact location cannot be determined simply using two sets of waves, a third station...

The reflection property of parabolas is very important because it has so many practical uses. Let P be any point on the parabola. Construct the line segment joining P to the focus, and a ray through P that is parallel to the axis of symmetry.
