Svet_ta [14]3 years ago

Given that the directrix is at y = 4 and the focus is at (0, -4), then the vertex is at (h, k) = (0, 0).
p is the distance between the vertex and the focus and between the vertex and the directrix = 4 and since the focus is below the directrix, p is negative, i.e. p = -4
Equation of a parabola is given by (x - h)^2 = 4p(y - k)
Therefore, the required equation is (x - 0)^2 = 4(-4)(y - 0)
x^2 = -16y
y = -1/16 x^2

Find an equation of the plane. the plane through the point (−5, 9, 10) and perpendicular to the line x = 1 + t, y = 4t, z = 2 −
PtichkaEL [24]
The direction vector of the line
L: x=1+t, y=4t, z=2-3t
is <1,4,-3>
which is also the required normal vector of the plane.

Since the plane passes through point (-5,9,10), the required plane is :
&Pi; 1(x-(-5)+4(y-9)-3(z-10)=0
=>
&Pi; x+4y-3z=1
