उत्तर

The given equation is of the form x2 = – 4ay where a is positive

Therefore, the focus is on y-axis in the negative direction and parabola opens downwards.

Comparing the given equation with standard form, we get a = 2.

Therefore, the coordinates of the focus are (0, –2)

And the the equation of directrix is y = 2

And the length of the latus rectum is 4a, i.e., 8.
