Let the points P and Q be (at12, 2at1) and (at22, 2at2) respectively. Since the normals at P and Q
intersects at parabola, t1t2 = 2
Let (h, k) be the point of intersection of the tangents at P and Q.
Then at1t2 = h and a( t1 + t2) = k
h = 2a
x 2a = 0

A
A (at12, 2at1)
B (at22, 2at2)
Tangents at A and B will intersect at the point C, whose coordinate is given by
(at1t2, a(t1+t2)) clearly ordinate of A , C and B are always in A.P.

The directrix of the parabola is x + y = 0 and focus is (1, 1). The length of perpendicular from (1, 1) to
the directrix is 2

focal length is
the point on the axis which is at a distance equal to focal length from the

focus towards the right is (3/2, 3/2). All the points to the right of this point, lying on the axis will satisfy
the required condition.

Point P clearly lies on the directrix of y2 = 8x.
Thus slope of PA and PB are 1 and 1 respectively.
Equation of PA : y =x +2, equation of PB : y = x 2,

A
Clearly x + ay 5 = 0 will always pass through the focus of y2 = 20x i.e. (5, 0).
Thus the drawn circle will always touch the directrix of the parabola i.e. the line x + 5=0
7.
A
We know any side of the triangle is more than the difference of the remaining two sides so that |PR
PQ| RQ
The required point P will be the point of intersection of the line RQ with parabola which is (a, 2a) as
PQ is a tangent to the parabola.
8.
D
Since normals at P and Q are perpendicular, the tangents at P and Q will also be perpendicular but
any two perpendicular tangents of a parabola always intersect on its directrix.
The parabola is (y 2)2 = 2(x +2). So its directrix is 2x + 5 = 0
9.
A
If x is a perfect square, then px will be a perfect square only if p is a perfect square, which is not
possible as p is a prime number. Hence y cannot be a perfect square. So number of such points will
be only one (0, 0).
10.
A, B
Any point on the line x +y =1 can be taken (t, 1 t)
equation of the chord, with this as midpoint is
y(1 t) 2a(x +t) = (1 t)2 4a t, it passes through (a, 2a)
2

so t 2t + 2a 2a +1 = 0, this should have 2 distinct real roots so a a< 0, 0< a< 1, so length of
latusrectum < 4.

As a circle can intersect a parabola in four points, so quadrilateral may
be cyclic. The diagonals of the quadrilateral may be equal as the

Any normal to the parabola y2 = 4x of slope m is y = mx + 2m + m3. If it passes through
(h, 2), m3 + (h + 2)m 2 = 0
Let f(m) = m3 +(h + 2) m 2
Then f(m) = 3 m2 + (h + 2)
If f(m) = 0 has three distinct real roots, then necessary conditions is that f(m) = 0 should have 2
distinct real roots i.e h < 2.
