Question
Let F be the focus of the parabola y2 = 4ax and M be the foot of perpendicular from point P(at2, 2at) on the tangent at the vertex. If N is a point on the tangent at P then equals -
-
-
- 1
- none of these
Hint:
Find the co-ordinates of F ,M and assume the any point N on tangent and Find the length of MN and FN in terms of t to find the ratio in terms of t.
The correct answer is:
Let F be the focus of the parabola y2 = 4ax and M be the foot of perpendicular from point P(at2, 2at) on the tangent at the vertex. N is a point on the tangent at P.
F(a,0) and tangent at vertex is x = 0. and P(at2,2at) then foot of perpendicular M is (0,2at)
N is any point on tangent let N = P as Point P also lies on tangent.
Then, MN = at2 and
Then
