In mathematics, a parabola is a plane curve which is mirror-symmetrical and is approximately U-shaped. It fits several superficially different mathematical descriptions, which can all be proved to define exactly the same curves. One description of a parabola involves a point and a line. The focus does not lie on the directrix. The parabola is the locus of points in that plane that are equidistant from the directrix and the focus. Another description of a parabola is as a conic section, created from the intersection of a right circular conical surface and a plane parallel to another plane that is tangential to the conical surface. The graph of a quadratic function y=ax²+bx+c is a parabola if a≠0, and, conversely, a parabola is the graph of a quadratic function if its axis is parallel to the y-axis.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

Objectives
5. In Chapter 5, you learned
that the graph of a
quadratic function is a
parabola. Because a
parabola is a conic section,
it can also be defined in
terms of distance.
6. A parabola is the set of all
points P(x, y) in a plane that
are an equal distance from
both a fixed point, the
focus, and a fixed line, the
directrix. A parabola has a
axis of symmetry
perpendicular to its directrix
and that passes through its
vertex. The vertex of a
parabola is the midpoint of
the perpendicular segment
connecting the focus and the
directrix.
7. The distance from a point to a line is defined as
the length of the line segment from the point
perpendicular to the line.
Remember!

parabola with focus F(2, 4) and directrix y = –4.

12. Previously, you have graphed parabolas with
vertical axes of symmetry that open upward or
downward. Parabolas may also have horizontal
axes of symmetry and may open to the left or
right.
The equations of parabolas use the parameter p.
The |p| gives the distance from the vertex to
both the focus and the directrix.

parabola.

by a parabola will be reflected
by the curve through the focus
of the parabola, as shown in
the figure. Waves emitted
from the focus will be reflected
