Why car headlights Parabolic? | Unleash Maths
While the parabola has many beautiful geometric properties as we have seen, it also has a remarkable property known as the reflection property, which is used in such diverse places as car headlights and satellite dishes. A car headlight emits light from one source, but is able to focus that light into a beam so that the light does not move off in all directions — as lamplight does — but is focused directly ahead. Satellite dishes do the opposite. They collect electromagnetic rays as they arrive and concentrate them at one point, thereby obtaining a strong signal.
