Curvature of hyperbola

Give me the curvature of xy=1 in every point.
Why can't we take the second derivative of it ?

My solution would probably be to rotate it 45° counter-clockwise,
take the second derivative
find the relation it has with the unaltered equation
and transform it back.

Is there something out there, which is more handy ?
