JEE MainMathematicsModerateParabola

Line 2y + x =8 cuts the parabola y^2 = 4x at point A and B. Now
normal at A and B cuts at point P. Another normal from P (not passing

through A, B) is drawn. If equation of this normal is y = -4x + 25c the

value of (10+c) is

-4x + 25c gS] rc (10+c)dk eku gS&

Show answer and solution
[IMAGE] A,B, C are co-normal points lg
⇒slope of normal izo.krk m_1, m_2, m_3,

⇒ m_1+m_2+m_3 = 0....(i)

As B also lies on line pqafd B js[kk ij fLFkr gS ⇒ (am^2, -2am)

⇒ m^2 - 4m -8 = 0

⇒ m_1+ m_2 = 4.....(ii)

From (1) and (2)

m_3 =-4

Now equation of normal vc

y=m_3x - 2am_3 - am_3^3

y=-4x+8+64

y=-4x + 72
