A technician is mapping a specialized cooling path that follows the hyperbolic trajectory defined by the equation . After converting the equation to its standard form, rac{y^2}{16} - rac{x^2}{4} = 1, the technician needs to identify the vertices of the graph. According to the standard graphing procedure for this equation, what are the coordinates of the vertices?
