What is the vertex of the parabola: y=2(x-3)²+4

The focus is always inside the parabola.

• true
• false

A parabola is the set of all points equidistant from the focus and the directrix.

• true
• false

All parabolas with a vertical directrix open the left or right.

• true

• false

What direction does the parabola point?

• Up 
• Down
• Left 
• Right

(y-4)² = -8(x+1)
What direction does this parabola open?

• up
• down
• left
• right

(y-4)² = -8(x+1)

What are the coordinates for the focus?

(x+3)² = 4(y+5)

What is the equation of the directrix?
