Answer: The picture contains the answer and the steps
The general form of a parabola when using the focus and directrix is:
(x - h)² = 4p(y - k) where (h, k) is the vertex of the parabola and 'p' is distance between vertex and the focus. We use this form due to the fact we can see the parabola will open up based on the directrix being below the focus. Remember that the parabola will hug the focus and run away from the directrix. The formula would be slightly different if the parabola was opening either left or right.
Given a focus of (-2,4) and a directrix of y = 0, we can assume the vertex of the parabola is exactly half way in between the focus and the directrix. The focus and vertex with be stacked one above the other, therefore the vertex will be (-2, 2) and the value of 'p' will be 2. We can now write the equation of the parabola:
(x + 2)² = 4(2)(y - 2)
(x + 2)² = 8(y - 2) Now you can solve this equation for y if you prefer solving for 'y' in terms of 'x'

The missing diagram is shown below. Remember that shapes are similar if you can turn one into the other by moving, rotating, flipping, or scaling. So this means you can make the object bigger or smaller. So in this case, we know that ΔABC is similar to ΔDEF. If so, we can establish the following proportion:

Our goal is to find x. So by Pythagorean theorem:

Conclusion:
<em>ΔABC ~ΔDEF</em>
<em>Distance across the river is 25.34m </em>
The equation of the parallel line is y = –2x – 11.
Solution:
Given equation of the line is y = –2x – 5.
Slope of this line is
= –2
To write the equation parallel to this line and passes through (–4, –3).
<em>If two lines are parallel, then they have the same slope.</em>


<u>Point-slope formula:</u>

Substitute the given values in the formula, we get



Subtract 3 from both sides of the equation.


Hence the equation of the parallel line is y = –2x – 11.
