@G33k Post what pops up as the equation.

Directrix (directrix):

Yes. Into the calculator at http://www.analyzemath.com/parabola/three_points_para_calc.html

I got y = 2x^2 + 12x - 4 Let me run the points through again.

Directrix (directrix):

y = -2 x^2 + 12x - 4

Directrix (directrix):

I drew the graph at desmos.com

Directrix (directrix):

There is an x here: y = -2 x^2 + 12*x - 4

Directrix (directrix):

Let's check the standard form requirement before we leave the thread. >> standard form of a parabola This is standard form: y = -2 x^2 + 12*x - 4 so that should be correct.
