Paragraph:
Let be nonzero real numbers. Let and be distinct points on the parabola . Suppose that is the focal chord and lines and are parallel, where is the point .
Question: If , then the tangent at and the normal at to the parabola meet at a point whose ordinate is
Question: If , then the tangent at and the normal at to the parabola meet at a point whose ordinate is
Options
- A\dfrac{{\left({t}^{2} + 1\right)}^{2}}{2{t}^{3}}
- B\dfrac{a{\left({t}^{2} + 1\right)}^{2}}{2{t}^{3}}
- C\dfrac{a{\left({t}^{2} + 1\right)}^{2}}{{t}^{3}}
- D\dfrac{a{\left({t}^{2} + 2\right)}^{2}}{{t}^{3}}
Correct answer
B. \dfrac{a{\left({t}^{2} + 1\right)}^{2}}{2{t}^{3}}
Step-by-step solution
Tangent at P: ty y + \dfrac{x}{t} = \dfrac{2a}{t} + \dfrac{a}{{t}^{3}}2y = at + \dfrac{2a}{t} + \dfrac{a}{{t}^{3}}y = \dfrac{a{\left({t}^{2} + 1\right)}^{2}}{2{t}^{3}}
