What is the standard form of the equation of the parabola with vertex 00 and directrix y4?
Assuming the vertex is 0,0 and the directrix is y=4 x^2=0
What is the standard equation for vertex at origin opens down 1 and 76 units between the vertex and focus?
Since the vertex is at the origin and the parabola opens downward, the equation of the parabola is x2 = 4py, where p < 0, and the axis of symmetry is the y-axis. So the focus is at y-axis at (0, p) and the directrix equation is y = -p. Now, what do you mean with 1 and 76 units? 1.76 units? If the distance of the vertex and the focus is 1.76 units, then p = -1.76, thus 4p = -7.04, then the equation of the parabola is x2 = -7.04y.

An equilateral triangle is inscribed in a parabola with its vertex at the vertex of the parabola how do you find the length of the equilateral triangle?
First you need more details about the parabola. Then - if the parabola opens upward - you can assume that the lowest point of the triangle is at the vertex; write an equation for each of the lines in the equilateral triangle. These lines will slope upwards (or downwards) at an angle of 60°; you must convert that to a slope (using the tangent function). Once you have the equation of the lines and the parabola, solve them simultaneously to check at what points they cross. Finally you can use the Pythagorean Theorem to calculate the length.
What could be the equation of the parabola centered at the vertex?
f(x)=x^2
What different information do you get from vertex form and quadratic equation in standard form?
The graph of a quadratic function is always a parabola. If you put the equation (or function) into vertex form, you can read off the coordinates of the vertex, and you know the shape and orientation (up/down) of the parabola.
What is the standard equation of a parabola that opens up or down and whose vertex is at the origin?
focus , directrix
What is the equation of a parabola with a vertex at 0 0 and a focus at 0 6?
The standard equation for a Parabola with is vertex at the origin (0,0) is, x2 = 4cy if the parabola opens vertically upwards/downwards, or y2 = 4cx when the parabola opens sideways. As the focus is at (0,6) then the focus is vertically above the vertex and we have an upward opening parabola. Note that c is the distance from the vertex to the focus and in this case has a value of 6 (a positive number). The equation is thus, x2 = 4*6y = 24y
What is the equation of vertex in parabola?
0,0
What is the standard form of the equation of the parabola with vertex 00 and directrix y4?
Assuming the vertex is 0,0 and the directrix is y=4 x^2=0
What is the difference between standard form and vertex form?
The difference between standard form and vertex form is the standard form gives the coefficients(a,b,c) of the different powers of x. The vertex form gives the vertex 9hk) of the parabola as part of the equation.
What is the standard equation for vertex at origin opens down 1 and 76 units between the vertex and focus?
Since the vertex is at the origin and the parabola opens downward, the equation of the parabola is x2 = 4py, where p < 0, and the axis of symmetry is the y-axis. So the focus is at y-axis at (0, p) and the directrix equation is y = -p. Now, what do you mean with 1 and 76 units? 1.76 units? If the distance of the vertex and the focus is 1.76 units, then p = -1.76, thus 4p = -7.04, then the equation of the parabola is x2 = -7.04y.

How does finding the vertex of a parabola help you when graphing a quadratic equation?
Finding the vertex of the parabola is important because it tells you where the bottom (or the top, for a parabola that 'opens' downward), and thus where you can begin graphing.
Find equation what parabola its vertex is 0 0 and it passes through point 2 12 express the equation in standard form?
Y=3x^2 and this is in standard form. The vertex form of a prabola is y= a(x-h)2+k The vertex is at (0,0) so we have y=a(x)^2 it goes throug (2,12) so 12=a(2^2)=4a and a=3. Now the parabola is y=3x^2. Check this: It has vertex at (0,0) and the point (2,12) is on the parabola since 12=3x2^2
What is the y-coordinate of the vertex of the parabola that is given by the equation below?
We will be able to identify the answer if we have the equation. We can only check on the coordinates from the given vertex.
