Answer:
y = - 
(x - 1)² + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Any point (x, y) on the parabola is equidistant from the focus and the directrix.
Using the distance formula
= | y - 6 |
Square both sides
(x - 1)² + (y + 2)² = (y - 6)² ( expand the factors in y )
(x - 1)² + y² + 4y + 4 = y² - 12y + 36 ( subtract y² - 12y from both sides )
(x - 1)² + 16y + 4 = 36 ( subtract 4 from both sides )
(x - 1)² + 16y = 32 ← subtract (x - 1)² from both sides )
16y = - (x - 1)² + 32 ( divide all terms by 16 )
y = - (x - 1)² + 2

Answer:
The height of the pole is 167 m
Step-by-step explanation:
The given parameters are;
Increase in the length of the shadow = 90 m
Initial angle of elevation of the Sun = 58°
Final angle of elevation of the Sun = 36°
We have a triangle formed by the change in the length of the shadow and the rays from the two angle of elevation to the top of the pole giving an angle 22° opposite to the increase in the length of the shadow
We have by sin rule;
90/(sin (22°) = (Initial ray from the top of the pole to the end of the shadow's length)/(sin(122°)
Let the initial ray from the top of the pole to the end of the shadow's length = l₁
90/(sin (22°) = l₁/(sin(122°)
l₁ = 90/(sin (22°) ×(sin(122°) = 283.3 m
Therefore;
The height of the pole = 283.3 m × sin(36°) = 166.52 m
The height of the pole= 167 m to three significant figures.
