directrix t^2

directrix

t^{2}

y = - \frac{1}{4}

Solution steps

Rewrite

y = t^{2}

in the standard form:

4 \cdot \frac{1}{4} (y - 0) = (t - 0)^{2}

(h, k) = (0, 0), p = \frac{1}{4}

Parabola is symmetric around the y-axis and so the directrix is a line parallel to the x-axis, a distance

- p

from the center

(0, 0)

y-coordinate

y = 0 - p

y = 0 - \frac{1}{4}

Refine

y = - \frac{1}{4}

4 x - 3 x^{2}

5 x^{2} + 7

(x + 1)^{2} = - 12 (y - 6)

4 x^{2} - 12 x - 2

3 x^{2} + 4 x - 3
