Presentation transcript:

 Parabola: set of all points in a plane that are the same distance from a fixed line & a fixed point not on the line  Focus: that fixed point; lies on the axis of symmetry  Directix: that fixed line; perpendicular to the axis of symmetry  Vertex: lies halfway between the focus & directix

 In chapter 5, all parabolas opened up or down with a vertical axis of symmetry  Look at bottom of page 595 togeter
