Continuity equation states that the product of area of cross section and velocity remains constant
The graph of area v/s will be a straight line with positive slope
Accordingly the area of velocity v/s will be a hyperbola
Pressure and velocity are related by Bernoulli's equation as
The graph for Velocity squared v/s is a second degree hyperbola; visually, it's just like a hyperbola curve
Now, the graph for a constant v/s is a horizontal straight line, thus the curve for pressure will be mirror image of the hyperbola curve about the horizontal straight line
