the ofrmula is x=-b/ab... trust me in in 8th grade taking a 11th grade course!!
No. If you tilt a parabola, you will still have a parabolic curve but it will no longer be a parabola.
Parallel rays, such as those from a very distance source, are focussed by a parabolic antenna so that they all meet at the focus of the parabola. This results in a stronger signal.
Parabolic means that which is expressed by a parable. This word can also be used to describe something that resembles or is part of a parabola or paraboloid. Parabolic has the same meaning as parabolical.
Ignoring air resistance, it would be a parabola.
A parabola is a two dimensional open curve. Its area is therefore infinite.

Trajectory is the path a projectile follows Parabola is the shape of this path
It means in the shape of a parabola.
A curve. It would be called a parabolic curve.

A parabolic mirror is shaped such that parallel incident light is reflected to a point called the focus. You will have to establish the size required, and the shape. There is an entry in Wikipedia on Parabola, giving the algebra.
A projectile doesn't follow a circular path. It follows a parabolic path. No part of a circle has the same shape as any part of a parabola. They're different curves.
A parabolic shape is used for all reflecting collectors ... visible light telescope, radio telescope, satellite receiver, etc. A parabolic reflector directs all parallel incoming rays toward one point, called the 'focus' of the parabola.
It is a property of a parabolic mirror that rays from from one of the foci of the parabola, travelling in any direction within the parabola will get reflected along the major axis. This means that these rays will travel as parallel rays. This will give a concentrated light source rather than one that is spread out across a broad area.
