The general shape of a satellite dish is parabolic with the LNB, or receiver, being at a point called the focus. The incoming signal bounces off the sides of the parabolic dish and redirects back into focal point.

Using the diagram above, determine the equation of the satellite dish given the roots and the point.
What transformations would the graph y = x'need to go through in order to
model the satellite dish?
Consider all possible incoming signals with a slope of 3. What stipulations apply for the signals to intersect with the parabola more than once?
A new satellite dish is being designed that will be even smaller than the one in the diagram with the LNB being closer to the centre. What transformations will need to be done on the equation of the first satellite dish i
