find: the center 
the vertex's- 
the foci points- 
directrix - 
and end point lactus- 
 Answer by stanbon(75887)      (Show Source): 
You can  put this solution on YOUR website! 2y=(x-5)squared+6  
---- 
Rearrange: 
(x-5)^2 = 2(y-3) 
4p = 2, so p = 1/2 
It is a parabola opening upward. 
--------------------------- 
find: the center------: It is a parabola. No center. 
the vertex's----------: (5,3) 
the foci points-------: (5,3+2) = (5,5) 
directrix ------------: x = 5-2 = 3 
and end point lactus--: ???
