Which equation represents a parabola with a focus at (0,-2) and a directrix of y=6?

│FV│ = │VD│

Being D the directrix. Given that the focus F is on the y-axis and the directrix is parallel to the x-axis, then the vertex V will also be on this axis, so h = 0.

As │FV│ = │VD│, then:

, that is the middle point of the segment FD, so:

V(0,2)

Now │FV│= │p│= │2-(-2)│=4

Given that the vertex and focus are below the directrix, then the parabola open down, therefore: 

Lastly, the equation is:

b
