The equation represents the directrix is x=-3.

the correct option is (C).

what is directrix in parabola?

A parabola is set of all points in a plane which are an equal distance away from a given point and given line. The point is called the focus of the parabola, and the line is called the directrix . The directrix is perpendicular to the axis of symmetry of a parabola and does not touch the parabola.

given: y²=12x

y²=4*3*x

Here a=3

So, x+a=0

x+3=0

x=-3.

Hence, the directrix of parabola is: x=-3
