The transverse axis is an imaginary line that passes through the center of a conic section (such as an ellipse, hyperbola, or parabola) and is perpendicular to the axis of symmetry. In an ellipse, the transverse axis is the longest diameter, while in a hyperbola, it passes through the foci.
A pirouette is performed in the transverse plane of motion, as the body rotates around a vertical axis.
A transverse beam is a structural element that runs horizontally perpendicular to the main axis of a structure. It helps to distribute loads and provide structural support across a span or area. Transverse beams are commonly used in bridges, buildings, and other architectural structures.
A transverse (axial) section is a cut or slice made perpendicular to the long axis of a structure, organ, or organism. It provides a cross-sectional view that helps to visualize internal structures and relationships within the specimen.
A transverse frame is a structural component in a vehicle that runs perpendicular to the vehicle's longitudinal axis. It provides rigidity and support to the chassis, helping to distribute the load and impact forces across the vehicle for better handling and stability. Transverse frames are commonly found in modern cars and trucks to enhance safety and structural integrity.
Transverse budding is a method of asexual reproduction where a new organism develops as a small bud that separates from the parent organism perpendicular to its main axis. This type of budding is commonly seen in certain invertebrates like hydra and some types of algae.

The transverse axis.
The length of the transverse axis of a hyperbola is given by the expression ( 2a ), where ( a ) is the distance from the center of the hyperbola to each vertex along the transverse axis. For a hyperbola centered at the origin with the standard form ( \frac{x^2}{a^2} - \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1 ) (horizontal transverse axis) or ( \frac{y^2}{a^2} - \frac{x^2}{b^2} = 1 ) (vertical transverse axis), the value of ( a ) determines the extent of the transverse axis. Thus, the transverse axis length varies directly with ( a ).
It is the conjugate axis or the minor axis.
The transverse axis is perpendicular to the conjugate axis.
The length of the transverse axis of a hyperbola is determined by the distance between the two vertices, which are located along the transverse axis. For a hyperbola defined by the equation ((y - k)^2/a^2 - (x - h)^2/b^2 = 1) (vertical transverse axis) or ((x - h)^2/a^2 - (y - k)^2/b^2 = 1) (horizontal transverse axis), the length of the transverse axis is (2a), where (a) is the distance from the center to each vertex.
The transverse axis is a connection on a hyperbola. It connects the focus, or center, of the hyperbola, and can connect two together.
The same as the major axis.

The transverse plane is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis.
A transverse incision is one that crosses the main axis of the area being cut.
