Question

A parabola has focus (−3,2) and directrix y=−3. The point (a,5) is on the parabola. How far is this point from the focus?

Answer 1

Wow, I just happen to be learning this right now although...

The question provided is incomplete and unclear. It mentions a parabola with a focus at (-3,2) and directrix y = -3, and a point on the parabola at (a,5), and asks for the distance between the point and the focus. However, it does not specify what is the equation of the parabola or provide enough information to solve the problem.
