Math Problem Statement

directrix y = - 9 and Vertex (-3 ,1) provide the following : P value ; focus ; Length of Latus Rectum; Endpoints of Latus Rectum equation of the principal axis standard equation of the parabola general equation of the parabola Graph of the parabola

Solution

Here is the graph of the parabola based on the given information. The key points and lines are marked, including the vertex, focus, directrix, and latus rectum.

Would you like any additional details or explanations? Here are some follow-up questions you might find useful:

  1. How do the directrix and focus affect the shape and orientation of a parabola?
  2. What are other forms of parabola equations?
  3. How can we derive the equation of the parabola from the focus and directrix?
  4. How does the value of pp influence the latus rectum and the shape of the parabola?
  5. What are the key differences between a horizontal and a vertical parabola?

Tip: Remember that the distance from the vertex to the directrix is always the same as the distance from the vertex to the focus in a parabola.
