United in pairs; yoked together; coupled. 2. (Bot.) In single pairs; coupled. 3. (Chem.) Containing two or more radicals supposed to act the part of a single one. [R.] 4. (Gram.) Agreeing in derivation and radical signification; -- said of words. 5. (Math.) Presenting themselves simultaneously and having reciprocal properties; -- frequently used in pure and applied mathematics with reference to two quantities, points, lines, axes, curves, etc. Conjugate axis of a hyperbola (Math.), the line through the center of the curve, perpendicular to the line through the two foci. Conjugate diameters (Conic Sections), two diameters of an ellipse or hyperbola such that each bisects all chords drawn parallel to the other. Conjugate focus (Opt.) See under Focus. Conjugate mirrors (Optics), two mirrors so placed that rays from the focus of one are received at the focus of the other, especially two concave mirrors so placed that rays proceeding from the principal focus of one and reflected in a parallel beam are received upon the other and brought to the principal focus. Conjugate point (Geom.), an acnode. See Acnode, and Double point. Self-conjugate triangle (Conic Sections), a triangle each of whose vertices is the pole of the opposite side with reference to a conic.
Hyperbatic
Hyperbatic Hy`per*bat"ic, a. Of or pertaining to an hyperbaton; transposed; inverted.
Hyperbaton
Hyperbaton Hy*per"ba*ton, n. [L., fr. Gr. ?, fr. ? transposed, fr. ? to step over; "ype`r over + ? to step.] (Gram.) A figurative construction, changing or inverting the natural order of words or clauses; as, ``echoed the hills' for ``the hills echoed.' With a violent hyperbaton to transpose the text. --Milton.
Hyperbola
Hyperbola Hy*per"bo*la, n. [Gr. ?, prop., an overshooting, excess, i. e., of the angle which the cutting plane makes with the base. See Hyperbole.] (Geom.) A curve formed by a section of a cone, when the cutting plane makes a greater angle with the base than the side of the cone makes. It is a plane curve such that the difference of the distances from any point of it to two fixed points, called foci, is equal to a given distance. See Focus. If the cutting plane be produced so as to cut the opposite cone, another curve will be formed, which is also an hyperbola. Both curves are regarded as branches of the same hyperbola. See Illust. of Conic section, and Focus.
