What is the equation of the directrix of the parabola given by the equation (y − 3)2 = 8(x − 5)?
Licemer1 [7]
The vertex of the parabola is at (5,3) and its focal length is 8/4 = 2.
Since it opens to the right, the directrix will be a vertical line 2 units to the left of the vertex, so its equation will be x=(5-2), or x=3

Answer:

8 square units and \frac{40}{3} square units

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the triangle ABC is 24 square units.

1. Triangles ABC and FBG are similar with scale factor \frac{1}{3}, then

\dfrac{A_{\triangle FBG}}{A_{\triangle ABC}}=\dfrac{1}{9}\Rightarrow A_{\triangle FBG}=\dfrac{1}{9}\cdot 24=\dfrac{8}{3}\ un^2.

2. Triangles ABC and DBE are similar with scale factor \frac{2}{3}, then

\dfrac{A_{\triangle DBE}}{A_{\triangle ABC}}=\dfrac{4}{9}\Rightarrow A_{\triangle DBE}=\dfrac{4}{9}\cdot 24=\dfrac{32}{3}\ un^2.

3. Thus, the area of the quadrilateral DFGE is

A_{DFGE}=A_{\triangle DBE}-A_{\triangle FBG}=\dfrac{32}{3}-\dfrac{8}{3}=8\ un^2.

and the area of the quadrilateral ADEC is

A_{ADEC}=A_{\triangle ABC}-A_{\triangle DBE}=24-\dfrac{32}{3}=\dfrac{40}{3}\ un^2.
