Determine the coordinates of the focus, the equation of the directrix and the length of the latus rectum of the parabola
y2 = (8/3)x.
Determine the coordinates of the focus, the equation of the directrix and the length of the latus rectum of the parabola
y2 = (8/3)x.
n: The equation of the curve is
y2 = (8/3)x = 4(2/3)x
so that a = 2/3. Hence, S = (a,0) = (2/3,0) is the focus,
x + 2/3 = 0 or 3x + 2 = 0
is the equation of the directrix and 4/83 a is the length of the latus rectum.
