Find the vertex , focus, axis, directrix and latus rectum of the following parabola: `y^2=8x`

Explanation

Given parabola equation is `y^2=8x`

Now on comparing this equation with `Y^2=4aX` we get

Therefore vertex `=(X=0,Y=0)`

`(x=0,y=0)`

And focus `X=a,Y=0`

`(x=2,y=0)`

And Axis `=Y=0`

` y=0`
