Consider the parabola $y^{2}=4 x$. Let $S$ be the focus of the parabola. A pair of tangents drawn to the parabola from the point $P=(-2,1)$ meet the parabola at $P_{1}$ and $P_{2}$. Let $Q_{1}$ and $Q_{2}$ be points on the lines $S P_{1}$ and $S P_{2}$ respectively such that $P Q_{1}$ is perpendicular to $S P_{1}$ and $P Q_{2}$ is perpendicular to $S P_{2}$. Then, which of the following is/are TRUE?
Let L be a normal to the parabola y2 = 4x. If L passes through the point (9, 6), then L is given by
Explanation:

$\frac{d y}{d x}=\left.\frac{x}{-2 a} \Rightarrow \frac{d y}{d x}\right|_N=-t$
Slope of normal $=\frac{1}{t}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{6}} \Rightarrow t=\sqrt{6}$
Now, $\frac{-\mathrm{at}^2+\alpha}{2 \mathrm{at}}=\frac{1}{\mathrm{t}}$
$\Rightarrow-\mathrm{at}^2+\alpha=2 \mathrm{a}$
$\Rightarrow-6 \mathrm{a}+\alpha=2 \mathrm{a} \Rightarrow \alpha=8 \mathrm{a}$
For A and B
$\begin{aligned} & x^2=-4 a(-8 a) \\ & \Rightarrow x^2=32 a^2 \Rightarrow x= \pm 4 \sqrt{2} a \\ & \therefore A(-4 \sqrt{2} a,-8 a), B(4 \sqrt{2} a,-8 a) \\ & \therefore A B^2=(8 \sqrt{2} a)^2=128 a^2=s \\ & \therefore \text { Length of } L R=r=4 a \\ & \Rightarrow \frac{r}{s}=\frac{4 a}{128 a^2}=\frac{1}{16} \\ & \therefore 32 a=16 \Rightarrow a=\frac{1}{2} \\ & \therefore 24 a=12 \text { Ans. } \end{aligned}$
Explanation:
${e^2} = 1 - {{{b^2}} \over {{a^2}}} = 1 - {5 \over 9} = {4 \over 9}$
The foci are ($\pm$ ae, 0) i.e. (2, 0) and ($-$2, 0).
The parabola P1 is ${y^2} = 8x$ and P2 is ${y^2} = - 16x$
As tangent with slope m1 to P1 passes through ($-$4, 0), we have
$y = {m_1}x + {2 \over {{m_1}}}$ giving $0 = - 4{m_1} + {2 \over {{m_1}}}$
i.e. $4m_1^2 = 2 \Rightarrow m_1^2 = {1 \over 2}$
Again for tangent with slope m2 to P2 passing through (2, 0), we have
$y = {m_2}x - {4 \over {{m_2}}} \Rightarrow 0 = 2{m_2} - {4 \over {{m_2}}}$
$ \Rightarrow 2m_2^2 = 4$ $\therefore$ $m_2^2 = 2$
Thus, ${1 \over {m_1^2}} + m_2^2 = 2 + 2 = 4$
Explanation:
Let, P(t2, 2t) be any point on the parabola y2 = 4x. C be the mirror image of the parabola y2 = 4x with respect to the line UV : x + y + 4 = 0.

The curve C cuts the line KL : y = $-$5 at A and B.
Let, B($\alpha$, $\beta$) be the image of the point P(t2, 2t).
Clearly, PB $\bot$ UV and PQ = QB.
$\therefore$ ${{\alpha - {t^2}} \over {\beta - 2t}} \times ( - 1) = - 1$
or, $\alpha - {t^2} = \beta - 2t$ ...... (1)
The point of intersection of the lines UV and KL is R.
Let us join P and R.
From $\Delta$PQR and $\Delta$BQR,
(i) BQ = PQ [$\because$ B is the image of P]
(ii) $\angle$PQR = $\angle$RQB = 90$^\circ$ [$\because$ PB $\bot$ UV]
(iii) QR common
$\therefore$ $\Delta$PQR $ \cong $ $\Delta$BQR [by SAS congruence criterion]
$\therefore$ $\angle$QRP = $\angle$BRQ [CPCT]
$\because$ slope of x + y + 4 = 0 is $-$1,
$\therefore$ $\angle$UTO = 135$^\circ$
$\therefore$ $\angle$OTR = 45$^\circ$
Again, X'X || KL and UV transversal.
$\therefore$ $\angle$OTR = $\angle$TRB = 45$^\circ$ $\therefore$ $\angle$BRQ = $\angle$QRP = 45$^\circ$
$\therefore$ $\angle$PRB = 90$^\circ$ $\therefore$ PR $\bot$ KL
$\therefore$ coordinates of R are (t2, $\beta$).
$\because$ the point R lies on KL,
$\therefore$ $\beta$ = $-$5
Again, the point R lies on the straight line x + y + 4 = 0.
$\therefore$ t2 + $\beta$ + 4 = 0
or, t2 $-$ 5 + 4 = 0 [$\because$ $\beta$ = $-$5]
or, t2 = 1 or, t = $\pm$ 1
when t = 1, $\beta$ = $-$5, then (1) $\Rightarrow$ $\alpha$ $-$ 1 = $-$ 5 $-$ 2 or $\alpha$ = $-$6
when, t = $-$1, $\beta$ = $-$5, then (1) $\Rightarrow$ $\alpha$ $-$ 1 = $-$ 5 + 2 or, $\alpha$ = $-$2
So, the coordinates of A and B are ($-$6, $-$5) and ($-$2, $-$5) respectively.
$\therefore$ AB = 4 units
So, the distance between A and B is 4 units.
Explanation:
Given: A parabola $y^2=4 x$
Comparing the given equation of parabola with the standard equation of parabola $y^2=4 a x$, we get $a=1$
Also, the end points of latus Rectum are $(a, \pm 2 a)$
$\Rightarrow$ The end points of latus rectum are $(1,2)$ and $(1,-2)$
Also we know that the equation of normal to the parabola at point
$\begin{aligned} & & \left(a m^2,-2 a m\right) \text { is } y & =m x-2 a m-a m^3 \\ \Rightarrow & & \left(a m^2,-2 a m\right) & =(1,2) \\ \Rightarrow & & \left(m^2,-2 m\right) & =(1,2) \\ \Rightarrow & & m^2 & =1 \text { and } m=-1 \\ \Rightarrow & & m & =-1 \end{aligned}$
So, the equation of the normal at $(1,2)$ is,
$\begin{aligned} & & y & =(-1) x-2(1)(-1)-(1)(-1)^3 \\ \Rightarrow & & y & =-x+3 \\ \Rightarrow & & x+y-3 & =0 \end{aligned}$
As the normal is tangent to the circle $(x-3)^2+ (y+2)^2=r^2$
$\Rightarrow$ The perpendicular distance of the tangent from the centre of the circle is equal to the radius of the circle.
Now, comparing the equation of the circle with the general form of the circle we get Coordinates of centre $\equiv(3,-2)$
$\Rightarrow$ Perpendicular distance from $(3,-2)$ to $x+y-3=r$
$\begin{array}{rrr} \Rightarrow & \left|\frac{3+(-2)-3}{\sqrt{1^2+1^2}}\right| & =r \\ \Rightarrow & \frac{2}{\sqrt{2}}=r \\ \Rightarrow & r^2=2 \end{array}$
Hint :
(i) The equation of the normal to the parabola at point $\left(a m^2,-2 a m\right)$ is $y=m x-2 a m-a m^3$.
(ii) The perpendicular distance of a point $(h, k)$ from the line $a x+b y+c=o$ is $\left|\frac{a h+b k+c}{\sqrt{a^2+b^2}}\right|$ units.







Now by definition of parabola. Parabola is a locus of a point which moves in such a way its distance from fixed point and from fixed line are equal where fixed point is called focus and fixed line is called directrix.
