Learn how to graph a parabola with the vertex and the origin conics

The video tutorial explains how to analyze and graph parabolas, focusing on the equation y^2 = 4x. It covers the orientation of the graph, identifying the vertex and focus, calculating the value of P, and understanding the directrix and line of symmetry. The tutorial emphasizes the importance of knowing how a parabola opens and provides tips for plotting the vertex and focus accurately.

What is the relationship between the focus and the vertex of the parabola?

Describe how to find the directrix of the parabola given the focus.
