Answer:
focus{S} ≡ (-1,-2)
directrix -------> x-2y+3=0
CONSIDER AN POINT ON PARABOLA , THAT IS POINT P WITH CO-ORDINATES (h,k) .
IF POINT P IS ON PARABOLA THEN IT'S DISTANCE FROM FOCUS WILL BE EQUAL TO IT'S DISTANCE FROM DIRECTRIX.
THEREFORE,
[h-(-1)]^2 + [k-(-2)]^2 = [h-2k+3]^2 /5
5[h^2 + 1 + 2h + k^2 + 4 + 4k] =h^2 +6h -4k + 9 + 4k^2 - 12k
4h^2 + k^2 + 4h + 36k +16 =0
NOW REPLACING [h,k] WITH [x,y] WE GET,
4x^2 + y^2 + 4x + 36y + 16 =0
THIS IS THE EQUATION OF PARABOLA.
HOPE IT HELPS...
