Graph and write the equation of the parabola given the focus and directrix

The video tutorial explains how to write the equation of a parabola given its focus and directrix. It begins by identifying the type of parabola and its axis of symmetry through plotting. The vertex is calculated as the midpoint between the focus and directrix. The tutorial then demonstrates how to formulate the parabola equation using the vertex and focus, concluding with a summary of the process.
