What are the coordinates of point p in a parabola

Answer:The coordinates of point P in a parabola depend on the specific parabola being considered.

In general, a parabola is a symmetrical U-shaped curve and can be defined by an equation of the form y = ax^2 + bx + c, where a, b, and c are constants.

To find the coordinates of point P on the parabola, we need to know its x-coordinate (let's call it xP), and then we can substitute it into the equation to find the corresponding y-coordinate.

The x-coordinate of point P can be given explicitly, or it can be found by solving an equation involving the parabola and some external information (e.g., the coordinates of another point on the parabola or some geometric property of the parabola).
