Given
[tex]y^2=2x[/tex]Find
vertex and length of the latus rectum
Explanation
Comparing this with standard equation
[tex]y^2=4ax[/tex]vertex of parabola = (0 , 0)
here , 4ax=2x
4a = 2
a = 1/2
so , lactus ractum = 4a = 4(1/2) = 2
Final Answer
Therefore , vertex is (0 , 0) and length of the latus rectum is 2
