(a)
Since, the focus and vertex of the parabola are on -axis, therefore its axis of the parabola is
axis
Let the equation of the directrix be the directrix meets the axis of the parabola at
. But vertex is the mid point of the line segment joining the focus to the point where directrix meets axis of the parabola
Thus, the equation of directrix is
Equation of parabola is
