If the vertex = (2,0) and the extremities of the latus rectum are (3, 2) and (3, -2), then the equation of the parabola is:

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

we know equation of parabola is
`y^2=4ax`
`(y-0)^2=4a(x-2)`
`y^2=4a(x-2)`
from diagram we can see that the value of a is 1 unit
`y^2=4(x-2)`
`y^2=4x-8`(eq of parabola)
