Solution

Dear student
1) y2=12xOn comparing the given equation with y2=4ax4a=12a=3 Vertex=(0,0)Focus=(a,0)=(3,0)Equation of the directrix:x=-ax=-3Axis=y=0Length of the latus ractum=4a=4×3=12 unitsEndpoints of latus ractum=(a,±2a)=3,±62) x2=6yOn comparing the given equation with x2=4ay4a=6a=32 Vertex=(0,0)Focus=(0,a)=0,32Equation of the directrix:y=-ay=-32Axis=x=0Length of the latus ractum=4a=4×32=6 unitsEndpoints of latus ractum=(±2a,a)=±3,32
