For the parabola y2 = 4x, find the coordinate of the point whose focal distance is 17

योग

उत्तर

Given parabola is y2 = 4x

Comparing with y2 = 4ax, we get,

4a = 4

∴ a = 1

Let P(x1, y1) be he required point on the parabola y2 = 4x, whose focal distance is 17.

∴ x1 + a = 17, where a = 1

∴ x1 + 1 = 17

x1 = 16

Since P(x1, y1) lies on y2 = 4x,

`y_1^2` = 4x1 

∴ `y_1^2` = 4(16) = 64

∴ y1 = ± 8

Hence, coordinates of required points on the parabola are (16, 8) and (16, – 8).
