Algebra 3 Chapter 10:Quadratic Relations and Conic Sections Lesson 2: Parabolas
VOCAB Parabola - The set of all points equidistant from the focus and directrix – Focus lies on the axis of symmetry – Directrix is perpendicular to the axis of symmetry
Today Today we will focus on learning how to write the equation of a parabola when we know the focus and the vertex Tomorrow we will look at the graphs
Types Standard Form with vertex (0,0) EquationFocusDirectrixAxis Of Symmetry (0,p)y = -px = 0 (p,0)x = -py = 0
Directions Look at the focus or find the focus – This determines which formula to use Plug p into the equation Solve
I DO (Parabola Equations) Write an equation of the parabola with the given focus/directrix and vertex at (0,0) 1. (4,0)5. y = 2 2. (-2,0)6. x = (-1/4, 0)7. x = -1/2 4. (0,1)8. y = -3
WE DO (Parabola Equations) Write an equation of the parabola with the given focus/directrix and vertex at (0,0) 1. (0,4)5. y = (0,-3)6. x = 3/4 3. (0,-4)7. x = (5/12,0)8. x = 2
YOU DO (Parabola Equations) Write an equation of the parabola with the given focus/directrix and vertex at (0,0) 1. (-3, 0)5. y = 5/8 2. (-5,0) 6. x = 6 3. (0, 1/2)7. y = 4 4. (0,-3/8)8. y = -1/12
Review Today you learned how to write the standard form of a parabola when you know the vertex and focus.
