Question

Circle drawn having it’s diameter equal to focal distance of any point lying on the parabola x2 – 4x + 6y + 10 = 0, will touch a fixed line whose equation is -

  1. y = 2    
  2. y = –1    
  3. x + y = 2    
  4. x – y = 2    

The correct answer is: y = –1


    x2 – 4x + 6y + 10 = 0 rightwards double arrow x2 – 4x + 4 = –6 – 6y
    rightwards double arrow (x – 2)2 = –6 (y + 1)
    Circle drawn on focal distance as diameter always touches the tangent drawn to parabola at vertex. Thus, circle will touch the line y + 1 = 0.
