(a) Explain why the vertex of this parabola lies at (9, 81). 1 (b) Given that the focus is at (9,f), find the equation of the directrix. Your equation will involve f. 2 (c) Using the fact that the origin lies on this parabola, together with the expressions for the focus and directrix, find the value of f.arrow_forwardSketch the graph of the following hyperbola. Specify the coordinates of the foci and find the equations of the asymptotes. Use a graphing utility to check your work.arrow_forwardPrompt: The parabola in the image has its focus at (4,3). Its directrix is the line y=1. The point (8,6) is on the parabola. Select all statements that are true.arrow_forward
- The eccentricity e of a hyperbola is defined as the number c/a, where ais the distance of a vertex from the center and cis the distance of a focus from the center.Because it follows that Describe the general shape of a hyperbola whose eccentricity is close to 1.What is the shape if e is very large?arrow_forwardThe clock shop was asked to manufacture a special hourglass for the Town museum. The hourglass is to be made so that is cross section is that of a hyperbola. The hyperbola will be formed by two asymptotes that are 14 inches apart 16 inches above and below the center. The vertices of the hyperbolas are 2 inches apart. Find the equation of the hyperbola that the clock shop will use to make this hourglass. Hint: Center the hyperbola at the origin. Identify the vertices as points. Determine the value for b.arrow_forwardTRUE OR FALSE The distance from focus to directrix is 4c. The principal axis of the parabola is the axis of symmetry. If x = –c, the directrix is to the left of the vertex.arrow_forward
