Observe the diagram :
\The focal zone is located at the focus of the parabolic mirror.
\The depth of the parabolic mirror is
.
Width of the parabola is
.
Since Width of the parabola is
,
width of the reflector will exist on above
-axis
and
width of the reflector will exist on below
-axis.
The point lie on the parabolic mirror are
and
.
The vertex of a parabola in standard form is
.
Since the vertex is located at origin, vertex is
.
The equation of parabola is
.
Substitute
and
in above equation.

The focus of a parabola in standard form is
.
Substitute
and
in
.

The focus of a parabola is
.
Thus, the distance between parabola to focal zone is
.
The distance between parabola to focal zone is
.
