EXAMPLE 3 Solve a multi-step problem Solar Energy The EuroDish, developed to provide electricity in remote areas, uses a parabolic reflector to concentrate sunlight onto a high-efficiency engine located at the reflector’s focus. The sunlight heats helium to 650°C to power the engine. Write an equation for the EuroDish’s cross section with its vertex at (0, 0). How deep is the dish?

EXAMPLE 3 Solve a multi-step problem SOLUTION STEP 1 Write an equation for the cross section. The engine is at the focus, which is | p | = 4.5 meters from the vertex. Because the focus is above the vertex, p is positive, so p = 4.5. An equation for the cross section of the EuroDish with its vertex at the origin is as follows: x 2 = 4py Standard form, vertical axis of symmetry x 2 = 4(4.5)y Substitute 4.5 for p. x 2 = 18y Simplify.

EXAMPLE 3 Solve a multi-step problem STEP 2 x 2 = 18y Equation for the cross section (4.25) 2 = 18y Substitute 4.25 for p. Solve for y. Find the depth of the EuroDish. The depth is the y - value at the dish’s outside edge. The dish extends = 4.25 meters to either side of the vertex (0, 0), so substitute 4.25 for x in the equation from Step vertex (0, 0), so substitute 4.25 for x in the equation from Step y

EXAMPLE 3 Solve a multi-step problem ANSWER The dish is about 1 meter deep.

GUIDED PRACTICE for Example 3 A parabolic microwave antenna is 16 feet in diameter. Find an equation for the cross section of the antenna with its vertex at the origin and its focus 10 feet to the right of its vertex. Then find the antenna’s depth. 9. Microwaves

GUIDED PRACTICE for Example 3 SOLUTION STEP 1 Write an equation for the cross section. Because the focus is right of the vertex, so p = 10. An equation for the cross section of the Antenna with its vertex at the origin is as follows: y 2 = 4px Standard form, vertical axis of symmetry y 2 = 4(10)x Substitute 4.5 for p. y 2 = 40x Simplify.

GUIDED PRACTICE for Example 3 STEP 2 y 2 = 40x Equation for the cross section (8) 2 = 40x Substitute 8 for p. Solve for x. Find the depth of the antenna. The depth is the x - value at the antenna outside edge. The antenna extends = 8 feet to either side of the vertex (0,0), so substitute 8 for y in the equation from Step x ANSWER The antenna is 1.6 ft deep.
