Write the equation of parabola with focus (5,2) and directrix x=1
***
This is a parabola that opens right.
Its basic form of equation: (y-k)^2=4p(x-h), (h,k)=coordinates of vertex
vertex: (3,2)
axis of symmetry: y=2
p=2(distance from vertex to directrix or focus on the axis of symmetry)
4p=8
equation: (y-2)^2=8(x-3)
