Options

  1. Alength of latus rectum 33
  2. Blength of latus rectum 66
  3. Cfocus (43,0)\left(\dfrac{4}{3}, 0\right)
  4. Dfocus (0,33)\left(0, \dfrac{3}{3}\right)

Correct answer

A. length of latus rectum 33

Step-by-step solution

Let Point P(x,y)P\left(x, y\right)

So equation of line passing through P(x,y)P\left(x, y\right) will be

Y−y=m(X−x)Y - y = m\left(X - x\right)

Point on xx-axis is given by Q(x−ym,0)Q\left(x - \dfrac{y}{m}, 0\right)

Mid-point of PQPQ lies on yy axis so its xx co-ordinate will be zero,

x−ym+x=0x - \dfrac{y}{m} + x = 0

m=y2⋅x⇒2dyy=dxxm = \dfrac{y}{2 \cdot x} ⇒ 2\dfrac{dy}{y} = \dfrac{dx}{x}

2lnn=ln⁡x+lnk2lnn = \ln x + lnk

y2=kx{y}^{2} = kx

It passes through \left(3, 3\right) ⇒ k = 3</p><p>curve</p><p>curvec ⇒ {y}^{2} = 3x</p><p>LengthofL.R.</p><p>Length of L.R.= 3</p><p>Focus</p><p>Focus= \left(\dfrac{3}{4}, 0\right)$
