1 8.7 The Parabola The Hubble Space Telescope orbits the Earth at an altitude of approimatel 600 km. The telescope takes about ninet minutes to complete one orbit. Since it orbits above the Earth s atmosphere, the telescope can perform its scientific work without the negative effects of the atmosphere. The primar reflector of the Hubble Space Telescope is parabolic. A parabola is the set or locus of points P in the plane such that the distance from P to a fied point F equals the distance from P to a fied line l. Focus F PF = PD The fied point F is called the focus. The fied line l is called the directri. Verte P The verte of a parabola is located midwa between the focus and the directri. The parabola never crosses the directri. We will use this information to help sketch parabolas. Directi D l INVESTIGATE & INQUIRE You will need two clear plastic rulers, a sheet of paper, and a pencil. Step Draw a 5-cm line segment near the bottom of the piece of paper. Label the line l. Mark a point about 4 cm above the middle of the segment. Label this point F. F l 8.7 The Parabola MHR 653
2 Step 2 Choose a length, k cm, that is greater than or equal to half the distance from the point F to the line l. You ma want to make k less than 8 cm. Step 3 To locate a point P that is k cm from line l and k cm from point F, place one ruler so that its 0 mark is on line l and the ruler is perpendicular to line l. Place the other ruler so that its 0 mark is on point F. Adjust the positions of the rulers to locate P that is k cm from l and k cm from F. k k F l Step 4 Mark a second point that is also k cm from line l and k cm from point F. Step 5 Repeat steps 3 and 4 using different values for k until ou have marked enough points to define a complete curve. Step 6 Draw a smooth curve through the points. The curve is an eample of a parabola.. How man aes of smmetr does the parabola have? 2. Steps 3 and 4 instructed ou to mark two points for the chosen distance, k. Are there an values of k for which onl one point can be marked? If so, describe the location of the point on the parabola. 3. What is the relationship between the verte of the parabola, line l, and point F? 4. In Step 2, wh must k be greater than or equal to half the distance from line l to the point F? 654 MHR Chapter 8
3 EXAMPLE Finding the Equation of a Parabola From its Locus Definition Use the locus definition of the parabola to find an equation of the parabola with focus F(0, 3) and directri = 3. SOLUTION Draw a diagram. The verte is located midwa between the focus and directri, so V(0, 0) is the verte. Since the parabola never crosses the directri, the parabola must open up. Let P(, ) be an point on the parabola. 2 The focus is F(0, 3). Let D(, 3) be an point on the directri. The locus definition of the parabola can be stated algebraicall as PF = PD. Use the formula for the length of a line segment, l = ( 2 ) 2 + ( 2, ) 2 to rewrite PF and PD. PF = ( 0) 2 + ( 3) 2 = 2 + ( 3) 2 PD = ( ) 2 + ( ( 3)) 2 = ( + 3) 2 Substitute: 2 + ( 3) 2 = ( + 3) Square both sides: 2 + ( 3) 2 = ( + 3) 2 Epand: = Solve for : 2 = 2 2 = 2 An equation of the parabola is = F(0, 3) V(0, 0) = 3 In Eample, note that, when the focus is (0, 3) and the directri is = 3, the equation of the parabola is = 2, and that 2 = In general, if the focus is F(0, p) and the directri is = p, then the equation of the parabola is = The Parabola MHR 655
4 The standard form of the equation of a parabola with its verte at the origin and a horizontal directri is = 2 The verte is V(0, 0). If p > 0, the parabola opens up. If p < 0, the parabola opens down. The focus is F(0, p). The equation of the directri is = p. The ais of smmetr is the -ais. The standard form of the equation of a parabola with its verte at the origin and a vertical directri is = 2 The verte is V(0, 0). If p > 0, the parabola opens right. If p < 0, the parabola opens left. The focus is F(p, 0). The equation of the directri is = p. The ais of smmetr is the -ais. = 4p 2 F(0, p) P(, ) ( p, ) P(, ) 0 V(0, 0) V(0, 0) 0 F(p, 0) = p (, p) = p = 4p 2 EXAMPLE 2 Writing an Equation of a Parabola With Verte (0, 0) Write an equation in standard form for the parabola with focus (4, 0) and directri = 4. SOLUTION The verte is located midwa between the focus and the directri, so the verte is V(0, 0). Since the parabola never crosses the directri, the parabola opens right. 656 MHR Chapter 8
5 The standard form of the equation of a parabola opening right with verte at the origin is = 2. The directri is = p, so p = 4. Since p = 4, the equation is = 2. 6 The equation can be modelled graphicall. 4 2 V(0, 0) F(4, 0) = 4 4 = 6 2 EXAMPLE 3 Determining the Characteristics of a Parabola From its Equation For the parabola = 8 2, determine the direction of the opening, the coordinates of the verte and the focus, and the equation of the directri. SOLUTION The equation is in the form =, so the graph opens up or down. Find the value of p. Rewrite = 8 2 as =. 4( 2) So, p = 2. Since p < 0, the graph opens down. 2 V(0, 0) The verte is V(0, 0). The focus is F(0, p), or F(0, 2). The equation of the directri is = p, or = The equation can be modelled graphicall. = F(0, 2) = 2 8 Recall that we can translate a parabola = a 2, with verte at the origin, to = a( h) 2 + k b translating h units to the left or right and k units up or down. This translation results in a parabola with verte (h, k). The equation of the resulting parabola can be epressed in standard form. 8.7 The Parabola MHR 657
6 The standard form of the equation of a parabola with verte V(h, k) and a horizontal directri is k = ( h) 2 The verte is V(h, k). If p > 0, the parabola opens up. If p < 0, the parabola opens down. The focus is F(h, k + p). The equation of the directri is = k p. The equation of the ais of smmetr is = h. The standard form of the equation of a parabola with verte V(h, k) and a vertical directri is h = ( k) 2 The verte is V(h, k). If p > 0, the parabola opens right. If p < 0, the parabola opens left. The focus is F(h + p, k). The equation of the directri is = h p The equation of the ais of smmetr is = k. = h h = ( k) 2 4p F(h, k + p) V(h, k) k = ( h) 2 4p V(h, k) F(h + p, k) = k = k p 0 0 = h p EXAMPLE 4 Writing an Equation of a Parabola With Verte (h, k) Write an equation in standard form for a parabola with focus F( 2, 6) and directri = 4. SOLUTION Since the parabola never crosses the directri, the parabola opens left. The standard form of the equation is h = ( k) 2. The verte is located midwa between the focus and the directri. The coordinates of the verte are V(, 6). Since the verte is V(, 6), h = and k = MHR Chapter 8
7 Use the focus to find the value of p. The focus F(h + p, k) is ( 2, 6). So, ( + p, 6) = ( 2, 6) + p = 2 p = 3 Now substitute known values into the standard form of the equation. h = ( k) 2 = ( 6) 2 4( 3) = ( 6) 2 2 The equation can be modelled graphicall. 2 0 = ( 6) = 4 F( 2, 6) 6 4 V(, 6) A equation of the parabola in standard form is = ( 6) 2. 2 Recall that parabolas can be graphed using a graphing calculator. If the equation of a parabola that opens left or right is given in standard form, first solve the equation for. For eample, solving = 4 2 for results in =± 4. Enter both of the resulting equations in the Y= editor. Y = 4 Y2 = 4. Adjust the window variables if necessar, and use the Zsquare instruction. 8.7 The Parabola MHR 659
8 Ke Concepts A parabola is the set or locus of points P in the plane such that the distance from P to a fied point F equals the distance from P to a fied line l. PF = PD The fied point F is called the focus. The fied line l is called the directri. The verte of a parabola is located midwa between the focus and the directri. The standard form of a parabola with verte at the origin is = 2 (opens up if p > 0, or down if p < 0), or = 2 (opens right if p > 0, or left if p < 0). The standard form of a parabola with verte (h, k) is k = ( h) 2 (opens up if p > 0, or down if p < 0), or h = ( k) 2 (opens right if p > 0, or left if p < 0). Communicate Your Understanding.
