The line of symmetry located on a parabola is right down the center. A parabola is a U shape. Depending on the direction of the parabola it either has a x axis of symmetry or y axis of symmetry. You should have two equal sides of the parabola.
Did you mean a parabola with equation y=3x^2? The line of symmetry is x=0 or the y-axis.
A parabola has a single focus point. There is a line running perpendicular to the axis of symmetry of the parabola called the directrix. A line running from the focus to a point on the parabola is going to have the same distance as from the point on the parabola to the closest point of the directrix. In theory you could look at a parabola as being an ellipse with one focus at infinity, but that really doesn't help any. ■

A scalene triangle has no axis of symmetry.

Its extremum is on its axis of symmetry.
Yes, it does.
How about y = (x - 2)2 = x2 - 4x + 4 ? That is the equation of a parabola whose axis of symmetry is the vertical line, x = 2. Its vertex is located at the point (2, 0).
The axis of symmetry is x = -2.
There's the vertex (turning point), axis of symmetry, the roots, the maximum or minimum, and of course the parabola which is the curve.
the axis of symmetry
The highest or lowest point of the parabola, it is the point that is closest to the focus. The extreme point lies on the axis of symmetry

Did you mean a parabola with equation y=3x^2? The line of symmetry is x=0 or the y-axis.
Line of symmetry: x = 3
x=-b/2a [negative B over 2A]
