a parabola and a branch of hyperbola tangent at 2 points

61 Views Asked by At

Is following true?

If a parabola and a branch of hyperbola are tangent at 2 points and on the same side of the common tangents, then the hyperbola is "outside" the parabola.

Example: 抛物线与双曲线内切于2点, 则抛物线在内侧

To generalize, two conics with $e\ge1$ are tangent at 2 points and on the same side of the common tangents, then the one with greater eccentricity lies on the "outside". (here is my calculation for a right hyperbola and a hyperbola)
