The vertex of the parabola is between the shortest line connecting its focus and directrix, so between (0, -4) and y = 4 is the point (0, 0), which is the vertex of the parabola. Also, this parabola faces downward.
The general formula for a parabola that faces downward is y = -4cx^2, where c is the distance from the vertex to either to focus or the parabola. Since c = 4, the equation is y = -16x^2, which is choice A.
Solution:
<u>It should be noted:</u>
- Opposite sides of a rhombus are always equal.
- Opposite angles of a rhombus are always equal.
<u>Thus:</u>
- (-y - 10) = 90°
- 3z - 3 = 90°
- 4x - 2 = 90°
<u>Finding x:</u>
- 4x - 2 = 90°
- => 4x = 90 + 2
- => 4x = 92
- => x = 23
<u>Finding y:</u>
- (-y - 10) = 90°
- => -y - 10 = 90°
- => -y = 100
- => y = -100
<u>Finding z:</u>
- 3z - 3 = 90°
- => 3z = 90 + 3
- => 3z = 93
- => z = 31
