The parabola y² = 4ax with a > 0 extends indefinitely into which quadrants?
ASecond and third
BFirst and fourth
CFirst and second
DThird and fourth
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. First and fourth
Since y² is non-negative and a > 0, x cannot be negative, so the curve lies to the right in quadrants one and four.
