What is the distance between (-8, -1) and (-4, -9)?

The distance formula between two points is

D=√( -)^2 + (-)^2

Whereas

d is distance

So in this case

(-8, -1)

(-4, -9)

x2 is -4

x1 is -8

y2 is -9

y1 is -1

Now we plug them in

d= √(-4 + 8)^2 + (-9+1)^2

Now solve

it’s about

8.94427

the transverse axis of a hyperbola is the line that contains the two vertices and the two focuses.

in this example (hyperbola of equation x^2/2 - y^2/4 = 1), the transverse axis is the  x-axis  .
