Question 1104252: Write the equation of each parabola described.
1.) Vertex at (2,5) Focus at (2,-3)
2.) Diretrix: x= 3/4 Focus: (5/9, -3)

--------------------------------------------
1.) Vertex at (2,5) Focus at (2,-3)
2.) Diretrix: x= 3/4 Focus: (5/9, -3)
--------------------------------------------
The directrix for your example (1) will be the line y=13.
You can find the equations using these as guidance:
derive parabola equation given known focus and directrix, vertex not at origin
if vertex is at origin, derive equation for parabola given focus and directrix
