Photography   A panoramic photo can be taken using a hyperbolic mirror. The camera is pointed toward the vertex of the mirror, and the camera’s optical center is positioned at one focus of the mirror (see figure). An equation for the cross-section of the mirror is

\(\frac{x^{2}}{25}-\frac{y^{2}}{16}=1\).

Find the distance from the camera’s optical center to the mirror.

Text Transcription:

x^2/25-y^2/16=1
