How can I solve the equation of a parabola when the focus and Latusrectum are given?

A parabola is a type of curve that is created by graphing a quadratic equation. It has a U-shape and is symmetrical.
To solve an equation of the parabola, you can use the quadratic formula or factor the equation. The solutions to the equation will be the x-values where the parabola intersects the x-axis.
The vertex of a parabola is the point where the parabola reaches its maximum or minimum value. It is located at the highest or lowest point on the curve, and its coordinates are represented as (h,k).
Yes, a parabola can have two x-intercepts if the parabola crosses the x-axis at two different points. This occurs when the parabola intersects the x-axis at two distinct values of x.
The direction of a parabola is determined by the coefficient of the squared term in the quadratic equation. If the coefficient is positive, the parabola opens upwards and its vertex is a minimum point. If the coefficient is negative, the parabola opens downwards and its vertex is a maximum point.
