Check the picture below. So the parabola looks more or less like so.
let's recall that the vertex is half-way between the focus point and the directrix, at "p" units away from both.
Let's notice that the focus point is below the directrix, that means the parabola is vertical, namely the squared variable is the "x", and it also means that it's opening downwards as you see in the picture, namely that "p" is negative, in this case "p" is 1 unit, and thus is -1.

ANSWER
8π ft
EXPLANATION
The circumference of a circle is calculated using the formula C=πd.
Where d=8 is the diameter of the circle.
We substitute d=8 into the formula to obtain,
C=8π ft.
Because we are looking for the exact circumference, we leave the answer in terms of π.
Hi there! Hopefully this helps!

Question A answer: 2.
To find the <u>median</u>, you simply need to order the set from lowest to highest and finding the <u><em>exact middle</em></u>. So it should look like this:
0, 1, <em><u>2</u></em>, 3, 4. So 2 is the median, therefore 2 is the answer to Question A.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Question B answer: 2
To find the <u>mean</u>, you have to add all of the numbers together and then you have to <u>divide by the number of items in the set</u>. There are 5 numbers in the set so it should look like this:
0 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 = 10.
Since there 5 numbers in the set, we need to divide by 5.
10 / 5 = 2.
Therefore, 2 is also the answer to Question B.

Let P be a point outside the circle such that triangle LMP has legs coincident with chords MW and LK (i.e. M, W, and P are colinear, and L, K, and P are colinear). By the intersecting secants theorem,
The angles in any triangle add to 180 degrees in measure, and 
and 
, so that
