To identify the dilation of a parabola, examine the coefficient of the quadratic term in its equation, typically in the form (y = ax^2 + bx + c). The value of (a) determines the dilation: if (|a| > 1), the parabola is narrower (stretched), while (|a| < 1) indicates it is wider (compressed). Additionally, a negative (a) reflects the parabola across the x-axis. Thus, the absolute value of (a) directly influences the shape and width of the parabola.

How can you find the center of dilation of a triangle and its dilation?
To find the center of dilation of a triangle and its dilation, you can identify a pair of corresponding vertices from the original triangle and its dilated image. Draw lines connecting each original vertex to its corresponding dilated vertex; the point where these lines intersect is the center of dilation. The scale factor can be determined by measuring the distance from the center of dilation to a vertex of the original triangle and comparing it to the distance from the center to the corresponding vertex of the dilated triangle.
How do you graph a dilation?
To graph a dilation, first identify the center of dilation and the scale factor. For each point of the original figure, measure the distance from that point to the center of dilation, then multiply that distance by the scale factor to find the new distance from the center. Plot the new points at these distances, and connect them to form the dilated figure. Ensure that the orientation remains the same and that the shape is proportional to the original.
How do you write an equation of a parabola with vertex at the origin and the given focus 60?
To write the equation of a parabola with its vertex at the origin (0, 0) and a focus at (0, 60), you first identify the orientation of the parabola. Since the focus is above the vertex, the parabola opens upwards. The standard form of the equation for a parabola that opens upwards is ( y = \frac{1}{4p}x^2 ), where ( p ) is the distance from the vertex to the focus. Here, ( p = 60 ), so the equation becomes ( y = \frac{1}{240}x^2 ).

Is a parabola the same as a parabolic curve?
No. If you tilt a parabola, you will still have a parabolic curve but it will no longer be a parabola.
How do you solve dilation?
To solve a dilation problem, you first need to identify the center of dilation and the scale factor. The scale factor indicates how much larger or smaller the figure will be compared to the original. For each point on the original figure, you calculate the new coordinates by multiplying the distances from the center of dilation by the scale factor. Finally, plot the new points to create the dilated figure.
What is the y-coordinate of the vertex of the parabola that is given by the equation below?

Parabola is the point at which the parabola is at its lowest or highest point?
A parabola is NOT a point, it is the whole curve.
The maximum or minimum of a parabola depending on whether the parabola opens up or down?
A parabola opening up has a minimum, while a parabola opening down has a maximum.

What is the diameter of a parabola?
It is the bisector of any 2 parallel chords drawn to the parabola. It is always parallel to the axis of the parabola.
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.

It is the apex of the parabola.
