Review Graph: x = 3 Graph: y = -5
Parabola Geometric Definition: The collection of all the points (x,y) in a plane that are the same distance from the focus as they are from the directrix. Axis of symmetry Focus p Vertex (h,k) p directrix p: distance from the vertex to the focus or the directrix.
STANDARD FORM (x2) when 4p is positive when 4p is negative
STANDARD FORM (y2) When 4p is positive when 4p is negative
Ex 1: Find the vertex, focus, axis of symmetry and directrix of y Rewrite in standard form: -4 -4 Since 4p is positive graph opens up Focus p 4 p 2. Vertex: (0, 4) Focus: First find P (distance from focus to vertex) From , 4p = 1 4 4 Focus (0, 4) 2 Axis of symmetry (vertical line) Directrix (horizontal line) x
Ex 2: Find the vertex, focus, axis of symmetry and directrix of y Rewrite in standard form: -2y -2y Since 4p is negative graph opens down 1 2. Vertex: (0, 0) Focus: First find P (distance from focus to vertex) From , 4p = -2 4 4 Focus (0, - ) p x p Focus -1 Axis of symmetry (vertical line) Directrix (horizontal line)
Ex 3: Find the vertex, focus, axis of symmetry and directrix of Rewrite in standard form: +2y - 29 +2y -29 Since 4p is positive graph opens up Complete the square Focus 2. Vertex: (5, 2) Focus: First find p (distance from focus to vertex) From 4p = 2 4 4 Focus (5, 2 ) Axis of symmetry (vertical line) Directrix (horizontal line)
Ex 4: Find the vertex, focus, axis of symmetry and directrix of Rewrite in standard form: Complete the square
Since 4p is positive graph opens right 2. Vertex: (-1, -5) Focus: First find p (distance from focus to vertex) From Mult to both sides Focus (-) Focus Axis of symmetry (horizontal line) y = -5 Directrix (vertical line)
