Find the equation of the hyperbola with vertices at (0, ±5) and foci at (0, ±8).
Given: Vertices at (0, ±5) and foci at (0, ±8)
Need to find: The equation of the hyperbola.
Let, the equation of the parabola be: 
Vertices of the parabola are at (0, ±5)
That means a = 5
The foci are given at (0, ±8)

A and B are the vertices. C and D are the foci.
That means, ae = 8, where e is the eccentricity.
⇒
[As a = 5]
⇒ 
We know that, 
Therefore,
⇒ 
⇒
[Squaring both sides]
⇒ 
⇒ 
⇒
[As a = 5]
So, the equation of the hyperbola is,
⇒
