Take CBT

How do the offsets vary in length in the Parabola - Offset Method?

A Linearly with their distances from point O

B As the square of their distances from point O

Correct Answer

C Inversely with their distances from point O

D As a cube of their distances from point O

Option B is the correct answer.

Step 4 of the 'PARABOLA - Offset Method' (page 11) clearly states: 'The offsets vary in length as the square of their distances from O.'

This method relies on a specific mathematical relationship for the offsets.
