Find the equation of parabola satisfying the condition vertex (0,0) passing through (-3,4) and axis is along y-axis.

Answer»

ANSWER :   16x2 = 9y

The axis of parabola is along y-axis. 

So let the equation of parabola be x2 = 4by 

The point ( -3 , 4 ) lie on the parabola .

so the point must satisfy the equation of parabola .

( - 3 )2 = 4b × 4 

9 = 16b 

b = 9/16 

\(\therefore\) The equation of parabola is 16x2 = 9y
