Description
This lesson focuses on deriving the analytic equation for a parabola given the focus and directrix (G.GPE.A.2) and showing that it is a quadratic equation. In doing so, students are able to tie together many powerful ideas from geometry and algebra, including transformations, coordinate geometry, polynomial equations, functions, and the Pythagorean theorem.
