LenKa [72]

Answer: 3.125 ft

Explanation:

If this dish has the form of a concave upward parabola and its vertex p is at the origin, its corresponding equation is:

x^{2}=4py

Where:

x is the radius, which can be found by dividing the diameter d=10 ft by half. Hence x=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{10 ft}{2}=5 ft

y=2 ft is the depth

p is the vertex of the parabola, where its base is

Finding p:

p=\frac{x^{2}}{4y}

p=\frac{(5 ft)^{2}}{4(2 ft)}

Finally:

p=3.125 ft This is where the the receiver should be placed
