Answer:

*You could just look it up.

Here's what I found on google:

Two figures are said to be similar if they are the same shape. In more mathematical language, two figures are similar if their corresponding angles are congruent, and the ratios of the lengths of their corresponding sides are equal. This common ratio is called the scale factor.

So basically, similar figures are 2 figures that are the same shape.

They don't have to be the same size.

A parabola can be represented by the equation y2 = –x. What are the coordinates of the focus and the equation of the directrix?

shutvik [7]

ANSWER

Focus:

$(- \frac{1}{4} ,0)$

Directrix:

$x=\frac{1}{4}$

EXPLANATION

The given parabola has equation:

${y}^{2} = - x$

We compare this to the general equation,

${y}^{2} = - 4px$

Comparing the coefficient of x, we have:

-4p=-1

$p = \frac{1}{4}$

The focus is (-p,0)

$(- \frac{1}{4} ,0)$

The equation of the directrix is

x=p

$x = \frac{1}{4}$
