Red Hat Enterprise Linux is a commercial distro produced by Red Hat, Inc. Fedora is a community-supported distro. The main difference between the two is that Red Hat provides warranties, certifications, and support for a fee, whereas Fedora provides free support with no warranty or certifications.
Fedora and openSUSE are the open-community spin-offs of privately managed and developed for-profit GNU/Linux distributions, Red Hat Enterprise Linux and SUSE Enterprise Edition Linux.
The term "main difference" is vague and subject to interpretation. I'll try to list a couple of what some folks consider "notable" differences. 1) Redhat Linux is normally purchased and various levels of support are also available for purchase. Fedora Linux is free (free as in beer as the saying goes). 2) Redhat Linux contains some features/enhancements not necessarily found in Fedora Linux or CentOS Linux - mostly these features are designed for enterprise environments. Hope this helps.
Red Hat Linux was discontinued in 2004 in favour of Red Hat Enterprise Linux for enterprise environments. However, Red Hat Linux still exists as "Fedora", free for home use, developed by "Fedora Projects", though the entire line is no longer commercial and only supported by the Linux community.
Initially it was just called "Red Hat Linux", but now Red Hat focuses exclusively on the enterprise market with its Linux distribution named "Red Hat Enterprise Linux" (RHEL) with the community version named CentOS (Community ENTerprise Operating System) and Fedora (a Red Hat-supported community Linux distribution)

Red Hat Linux was discontinued in 2003, and replaced with "Red Hat Enterprise Linux", and the free, home-use version "Fedora". Updates were discontinued for Red Hat after 2006.
There is no longer a product known as "Red Hat Linux." All versions of Red Hat are made for enterprises. At one time, there was a consumer version, but it has since been discontinued, in favour of Fedora, a testing ground for technologies that Red Hat wish to incorporate into it's Enterprise Linux offering
Red hat operating system is a Linux based operating system assembled by the company Red Hat.It was released on November 3,1994. It was the first Linux distribution to use the RPM package manager. since 2003 Red Hat has discontinued it in the favor of Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) for enterprise environment.Now fedora project is supported by the community and Red Hat. Red Hat Linux 9, the final release, hit its official end-of-life on 2004-04-30, although updates were published for it through 2006 by the fedora project till it's shutdown in 2007.
RT Linux is a specific distribution of Linux, as is Fedora. You can install RT Linux over Fedora, but RT Linux isn't a program you install in a Fedora installation, but an entirely different installation altogether (and meant for different things; RT Linux is meant for specialty devices where the machine needs to manage devices and calculations in Real-time whereas Fedora is more a desktop/server distribution.)
No. Hybrid implies that there is a mix with something else. Fedora uses only the Linux kernel.
