What is an equation of a parabola with the giveb focus
Focus:(-2,0)
horizontal axis or vertical?
Where is the vertex or directrix?
You need to give more information.
Depending on the vertex, many parabolas have that focus.
It doesnt give thoughs things this is all the question says
To find the equation of a parabola with a given focus, we also need to know the directrix or the vertex of the parabola.
If we know the focus and the directrix, we can use the definition of a parabola to determine the equation. The definition states that for any point on the parabola, the distance to the focus is equal to the perpendicular distance to the directrix.
Given that the focus is (-2,0), we need to find either the directrix or the vertex to proceed. If you have the directrix or vertex, please provide it so we can continue.
