A compass.
What is the dictionary definition of gvim?
Gvim is a really difficult word to define. Some people define the word Gvim as a programmer text editors. Gvim is a great tool for people who like to write. A person can even use this tool to spell check.

Is the ordered pair 5 2 the same point as 2 5 in the xy-plane?
No. In an ordered pair for a point in the xy-plane the first number is the x-coordinate and the second is the y-coordinate. (2, 5) is the point with an x-coordinate of 2 and a y-coordinate of 5; (5, 2) is the point with an x-coordinate of 5 and a y-coordinate of 2. Only if the x- and y- coordinates are equal are the points the same point. However, the point (5, 2) is the reflection of the point (2, 5) in the line y = x.
What is the name of the point you use to define a parabola?
All of the points on a parabola define a parabola. However, the vertex is the point in which the y value is only used for one point on the parabola.

How do you find the a value in a parabola?
To find the "a" value in a parabola, which determines its width and direction (opening upwards or downwards), you can use the standard form of a quadratic equation: (y = ax^2 + bx + c). If you have a specific point on the parabola and the values of (b) and (c), you can substitute these into the equation along with the coordinates of the point to solve for (a). Alternatively, if the parabola is in vertex form, (y = a(x-h)^2 + k), you can derive (a) using the vertex and another point on the curve.
The vertex of the parabola below is at the point (5 -3). Which of the equations below could be the one for this parabolaus anything?
To determine the equation of a parabola with a vertex at the point (5, -3), we can use the vertex form of a parabola's equation: (y = a(x - h)^2 + k), where (h, k) is the vertex. Substituting in the vertex coordinates, we have (y = a(x - 5)^2 - 3). The value of "a" will determine the direction and width of the parabola, but any equation in this form with varying "a" values could represent the parabola.
Is there another not as common name for a parabola?
The parabola is a type of conic section, . The problem is that this is not a descriptive as the if the word "parabola" is used. The reason is that it is not the only geometric shape that can be derived by slicing a cone with a plane. Use the link below to see a drawing and learn more.
What is the equation for the parabola with the vertex -3.0 that passes through the point 318?
To find the equation of a parabola with vertex at ((-3, 0)) that passes through the point ((3, 18)), we can use the vertex form of a parabola, (y = a(x + 3)^2). To determine the value of (a), substitute the point ((3, 18)) into the equation: [ 18 = a(3 + 3)^2 \implies 18 = a(6)^2 \implies 18 = 36a \implies a = \frac{1}{2}. ] Thus, the equation of the parabola is (y = \frac{1}{2}(x + 3)^2).
How do you write an equation for a parabola in standard form?
To write an equation for a parabola in standard form, use the format ( y = a(x - h)^2 + k ) for a vertical parabola or ( x = a(y - k)^2 + h ) for a horizontal parabola. Here, ((h, k)) represents the vertex of the parabola, and (a) determines the direction and width of the parabola. If (a > 0), the parabola opens upwards (or to the right), while (a < 0) indicates it opens downwards (or to the left). To find the specific values of (h), (k), and (a), you may need to use given points or the vertex of the parabola.
Projectile motion with the use of parabola?
Yes.
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.
