FAQs on Solved Examples: Parabola - Mathematics (Maths) for JEE Main & Advanced
| 1. What is a parabola in mathematics? |  |
Ans. A parabola is a U-shaped curve that can be represented by a quadratic equation of the form y = ax^2 + bx + c. It is a conic section formed by the intersection of a plane parallel to the side of a cone.
| 2. How do you find the vertex of a parabola? | |
Ans. The vertex of a parabola can be found using the formula x = -b/2a, where the x-coordinate of the vertex is -b/2a. To find the y-coordinate, substitute the x-coordinate back into the equation of the parabola.
| 3. What is the focus of a parabola? | |
Ans. The focus of a parabola is a fixed point located on the axis of symmetry of the parabola. It is equidistant from the directrix as it is from any point on the parabola.
| 4. How do you determine if a parabola opens upwards or downwards? | |
Ans. The direction in which a parabola opens is determined by the sign of the coefficient of x^2 in the equation. If the coefficient is positive, the parabola opens upwards; if it is negative, the parabola opens downwards.
| 5. What is the axis of symmetry of a parabola? | |
Ans. The axis of symmetry of a parabola is a vertical line that passes through the vertex of the parabola. It divides the parabola into two symmetrical halves. The equation of the axis of symmetry is x = -b/2a.
