Equation of Parabola
This is an applet to explore the equation of a parabola and its properties.
The equation used is
the standard equation that has the form
(y - k)2 = 4a(x – h)
where h and k are the x- and y-coordinates of the vertex of the parabola and a is a non zero
real number (in this investigation we consider only cases with positive a).
For the definition
and construction of a parabola Go here.
Examples of applications of the parabolic shape as Parabolic Reflectors and Antennas and a
tutorial on how to Find The Focus of Parabolic Dish Antennas and on How Parabolic Dish
Antennas work? are included in this site.
The exploration is carried out by changing the parameters h, k and a included in the above
equation.
Follow the steps in the tutorial below.
