How to find the equation of a parabola in conic sections given vertex and directrix
Parabola with axis parallel to y -axis; p is the semi-latus rectum In Cartesian coordinates, if the vertex is the origin and the directrix has the equation , then, by examining the case , the focus is on the positive -axis, with , where is the focal length. The above geometric characterization implies that a point is on the parabola if and only if Solving for ...
