Answer:
(x²-10x+33)/(-8) = y
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance between any point on a parabola from both its focus and directrix are the same.
Let's say we have a point (x,y) on the parabola. We can then say that using the distance formula,
is the distance between (x,y) and the focus. Similarly, the distance between (x,y) and the directrix is |y-1| (I use absolute value here because distance is always positive). We can find this equation by taking the shortest distance from the point to the line. Because the closest point to the line will be the same x value as the point itself, the distance is simply the distance between the y value of the point and the y value of the directrix.
Equating the two equations given, we have
square both sides to get
(x-5)²+(y+3)²=(y-1)²
expand the y components
(x-5)² + y²+6y+9 = y²-2y+1
subtract y²+6y+9 from both sides
(x-5)² = -8y - 8
expand the x components
x²-10x+25 = -8y - 8
add 8 to both sides to isolate the -8y
x²-10x+33 = -8y
divide both sides by -8 to isolate y
(x²-10x+33)/(-8) = y
Answer:
Sam is incorrect
Step-by-step explanation:
We can calculate the lengths of the diagonals using Pythagoras' identity.
The diagonals divide the rectangle and square into 2 right triangles.
Consider Δ SRQ from the rectangle
SQ² = SR² + RQ² = 12² + 6² = 144 + 36 = 180 ( take square root of both sides )
SQ = ≈ 13.4 in ( to 1 dec. place )
Consider Δ ONM from the square
OM² = ON² + NM² = 6² + 6² = 36 + 36 = 72 ( take square root of both sides )
OM = ≈ 8.5 in ( to 1 dec. place )
Now 2 × OM = 2 × 8.5 = 17 ≠ 13.4
Then diagonal OM is not twice the length of diagonal SQ
