What else can I help you with?
What is the point directly above the focus?
The point directly above the focus is the vertex of the parabola. The focus is a specific point on the axis of symmetry of the parabola, and the vertex is the point on the parabola that is closest to the focus.
What do you call the exact point above the focus?
The exact point directly above the focus of a conic section, such as a parabola, is called the "vertex." In a parabola, the vertex is the point where the curve changes direction. For other conic sections like ellipses and hyperbolas, the term "vertex" can also apply, but the focus is typically referenced in relation to the overall shape and properties of the conic section.
At what point PE at a maximum?
The potential energy of an object is at a maximum when it is at its highest point in a gravitational field, such as when it is lifted to its maximum height or at the peak of a motion like a swing. At this point, all of its energy is in the form of potential energy due to its position relative to the Earth's surface.
Point in planet's orbit where the planet reaches its maximum distance from the Sun?
A planet's maximum distance from the Sun is known as its aphelion. This point occurs when the planet is at the farthest point in its elliptical orbit around the Sun. The distance between the planet and the Sun is greatest at aphelion.
What is a planet's maximum distance from the sun is the of its orbit?
The maximum distance from the sun in a planet's orbit is called its aphelion. This point is farthest from the sun, as opposed to the perihelion, which is its closest point.
Can a parabola have both a maximum and minimum point?
No, a parabola cannot have both a maximum and minimum point. A parabola opens either upwards or downwards; if it opens upwards, it has a minimum point, and if it opens downwards, it has a maximum point. Thus, a parabola can only have one of these extrema, not both.
What do you call the highest or the lowest point of a parabola?
The highest point of a parabola is called the "maximum," while the lowest point is referred to as the "minimum." These points occur at the vertex of the parabola. If the parabola opens upwards, it has a minimum point, and if it opens downwards, it has a maximum point.
What is the extreme point called on a parabola?
The vertex, or maximum, or minimum.
How do you know if a parabola has a minimum or maximum value?
When you look at the parabola if it opens downwards then the parabola has a maximum value (because it is the highest point on the graph) if it opens upward then the parabola has a minimum value (because it's the lowest possible point on the graph)
If a parable has a maximum point what shape does it have?
If you mean a parabola with a maximum point then it will look like an umbrella.
If the parabola opens downward the vertex is called the?
The maximum point.
If the parabola opens upward the vertex is called?
maximum point :)
If the parabola opens upward the vertex is called the?
maximum point :)
Parts of a parabola?
There's the vertex (turning point), axis of symmetry, the roots, the maximum or minimum, and of course the parabola which is the curve.
What is another name for the maximum or minimum point of a quadratic graph?
Apex.
What do you call the maximum or the minimum of a parabola?
A parabola's maximum or minimum is its vertex.
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.
