It is quite simple actually since it is simple division with the negative rules.
Just simplify the problem and use the negatives to determine if it is positive or negative. (two negatives equal a positive and one negative equals a negative)

Given the parabola below, find the endpoints of the latus rectum. (x-2)^2=-20(y+2)

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

The endpoints of the latus rectum are $(12, -7)$ and $(-8, -7)$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

A parabola with vertex at point $C(x, y) = (h,k)$ and whose axis of symmetry is parallel to the y-axis is defined by the following formula:

$(x-h)^{2} = 4\cdot p \cdot (y-k)$ (1)

Where:

$y$ - Independent variable.

$x$ - Dependent variable.

$p$ - Distance from vertex to the focus.

$h$ , $k$ - Coordinates of the vertex.

The coordinates of the focus are represented by:

$F(x,y) = (h, k+p)$ (2)

The <em>latus rectum</em> is a line segment parallel to the x-axis which contains the focus. If we know that $h = 2$ , $k = -2$ and $p = -5$ , then the latus rectum is between the following endpoints:
