    Uploaded by

    Naima
    The document defines a parabola as a set of points equidistant from a fixed line (the directrix) and a fixed point (the focus). It describes the key parts of a parabola including the directrix, focus, axis of symmetry, latus rectum, and vertex. Additionally, it explains how to transform the general form of a parabolic equation into the standard or vertex form, including an example.

    1. Directrix - It is the fixed line of a parabola.
    2. Focus - It is the fixed point of a parabola.
    3. Axis of Symmetry - It is the line
    perpendicular to the directrix and passing
    through the focus.
    4. Latus Rectum - It is the chord that passes
    through the focus.
    5. Vertex - It is the point on the parabola
    midway between the latus rectum and
    directrix.

    Transforming the Equations of a Parabola from
    General Form to Standard Form
    Steps to follow:
    1. Group the terms with same variables.
    2. Move the remaining terms to the right side of the equation.
    3. Create a perfect square trinomial by completing the squares.
    4. Simplify the equations.
    5. Express the perfect square trinomials as square of binomials to make
    the equation in standard or vertex form.
