JEE Advance - Mathematics (2017 - Paper 1 Offline - No. 15)
If a tangent to a suitable conic (Column 1) is found to be y = x + 8 and its point of contact is (8, 16), then which of the following options is the only CORRECT combination?
(III) (i) (P)
(I) (ii) (Q)
(II) (iv) (R)
(III) (ii) (Q)
Explanation
The tangent is y = x + 8.
Satisfying (8, 16) in y2 = 4ax, we have
162 = 4a . 8. $$\therefore$$ a = 8
On comparing y = mx + $${a \over m}$$, we have m = 1
The point of contact is $$\left( {{a \over {{m^2}}},{{2a} \over m}} \right) = (8,16)$$
So its verified.
