What is the directrix of the parabola
(x - 4)² = 8(y + 3)?

• y = - 3
• x= 5
• y= - 5
• y= 2

What is the focus of the following parabola?
(y + 5)² = -12 (x - 2)

• (2, - 5)
• ( -5, 2)
• (1 , -5 )
• (-1, -5 )

True or False?
When the x-part is squared, the parabola opens up or down.

• True
• False

What direction does the parabola open?
(y-9)² = -40(x+4)

• Up
• Down
• Left
• Right

What number would go in the blank?

• -2

Given this directrix and vertex, what would the equation of the parabola be?

• (y-2)² = 12(x-1)
• (y-2)² = 6(x-1)
• (x-1)² = 12(y-2)
• (x-1)² = 6(y-2)
