Hello there,
The answer to your question is 1 meter as its more sensible. As if you were to use 1 millimeter it will take you a long time to measure the iron board and the result will be inaccurate. Thus to prevent inaccuracy, 1 meter is a better estimate.

Hope this helps :))

Please help! An archway will be constructed over a walkway. A piece of wood will need to be curved to match a parabola. Explain

Gwar [14]

draw a perpendicular line from the directrix passing through the focus, this will be the line of symmetry. The vertex(h, k) will be located on the line half way between the focus and directrix. The distance from the focus to the vertex is called the focal length, call it a. The then equation is (x - h)^2 = 4a(y - k) the equation can be manipulated to y = 1/4a(x - h)^2 + k hope it helps
