If two tangents drawn from the point P(h,k)P ( h, k ) to the parabola y2=8xy^{2} = 8x are such that the slope of one of the tangent is 33 times the slope of the other, then the locus of point PP is

Options

  1. A3y2=16x3y^{2} = 16x
  2. B3y2=8x3y^{2} = 8x
  3. Cy2=32xy^{2} = 32x
  4. D3y2=32x3y^{2} = 32x

Correct answer

D. 3y2=32x3y^{2} = 32x

Step-by-step solution

Equation of tangent in slope form is y=mx+amy = mx + \dfrac{a}{m}
Let the tangent passes through P(h,k)<br/>P \left(h, k\right)<br />⇒ k = mh + am\dfrac{a}{m}⇒ m^{2}h - km + a = 0<br/><br />⇒ {m}_{1} + {m}_{2} = kh\dfrac{k}{h}& {m}_{1}{m}_{2} = ah<br/>Where, \dfrac{a}{h}<br />Where,~a = 2 & {m}_{2} = 3{m}_{1}<br/><br />⇒ 4{m}_{1} = kh\dfrac{k}{h }& 3(m1)3 \left({m}_{1}\right)2 = 2h<br/>\dfrac{2}{h}<br />⇒ 3(k4h)2=2h⇒3y2=32x3{ \left(\dfrac{k}{4h}\right)}^{2} = \dfrac{2}{h}⇒ 3y^{2} = 32x
