<u>Directrix:</u>

If the vertex of the parabola is at (0, 0) and the focus is (0, -4) <em>which is 4 units down</em><em> </em>then the directrix will be the line 4 units UP.

Answer: y = 4

<u>Equation of parabola:</u>

y = \frac{1}{4p}x^{2}  ; where p is the distance from the vertex to the focus.

As stated above, the focus is 4 units down, so p = -4

y = \frac{1}{4(-4)}x^{2}

y = \frac{1}{-16}x^{2}

Answer: y = -\frac{1}{16}x^{2}

Answer:

The approximated length of EF is 2.2 units ⇒ A

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>The tangent ratio in the right triangle is the ratio between the opposite side to the adjacent side of one of the acute angle in the triangle</em>

In the given figure

∵ The triangle DFE has a right angle F

∵ The opposite side to angle D is EF

∵ The adjacent side to angle D is DF

→ By using the tangent ratio above

∴ tan(∠D) = \frac{EF}{DF}

∵ DF = 6 units

∵ m∠D = 20°

→ Substitute then in the ratio above

∴ tan(20°) = \frac{EF}{6}

→ Multiply both sides by 6

∴ 6 tan(20°) = EF

∴ 2.183821406 = EF

→ Approximate it to the nearest tenth

∴ 2.2 = EF

∴ The approximated length of EF is 2.2 units
