Answer to Problem 22E
Focus of parabola is
Directrix of parabola is
Focal diameter of parabola Is
Explanation of Solution
Focus of parabola is
Directrix of parabola is
Focal diameter of parabola Is
Given information:
The equation is
First write the equation in a standard form of parabola,
Comparing the standard form of the parabola to the general equation,
By comparing the equations it can be observed that,
Directrix: the directrix of parabola is given by
Since
So the directrix of the parabola is
Focus: the focus of parabola is given as
Since
Thus, the focus of parabola is
Vertices :
Focal diameter of the parabola:
Since
So focal diameter of the parabola is
Since the
Use the above information together with some additional values which is show in table below
To sketch the graph,
x | y |
1 | -0.66 |
2 | -2.66 |
-2 | -2.66 |
1 | -0.66 |
The graph is obtained as:
