a diagram shows one of the post at the end of Manuel driveway it length is 11.5 the breadth is 11.5 and the width is 7.4 what is

lisov135 [29]

Because vol= length x width x height , and assuming that the height is 11.5 because breadth means width but you already have a width then, vol= 11.5 x 7.4 x 11.5, vol = 978.65

A parabola has a focus of F(2, -0.5) and a directrix of y=-1.5 P(x,y) represents any point on the parabola, while D(x, -1.5) rep

prohojiy [21]

The sketch of the parabola is attached below

We have the focus $(a,b) = (2, -0.5)$
The point $P(x,y)$
The directrix, c at $y=-1.5$

The steps to find the equation of the parabola are as follows

Step 1
Find the distance between the focus and the point P using Pythagoras. We have two coordinates; $(2, -0.5)$ and $(x,y)$ .
We need the vertical and horizontal distances to find the hypotenuse (the diagram is shown in the second diagram).
The distance between the focus and point P is given by
$\sqrt{ (x-a)^{2}+ (y-b)^{2} }$

Step 2
Find the distance between the point P to the directrix $c$ . It is a vertical distance between y and c, expressed as $y-c$

Step 3
The equation of parabola is then given as
$\sqrt{ (x-a)^{2}+ (y-b)^{2} }$ = $y-c$
$(x-a)^{2}+ (y-b)^{2}= (y-c)^{2}$ ⇒ substituting a, b and c
$(x-2)^{2}+ (y--0.5)^{2} = (y--1.5)^{2}$
$(x-2)^{2}+ (y+0.5)^{2}= (y+1.5)^{2}$ ⇒Rearranging and making $y$ the subject gives

$y= \frac{ x^{2} }{2} -2x+1$
