प्रश्न

Select the correct option from the given alternatives:

The length of latus rectum of the parabola x2 – 4x – 8y + 12 = 0 is _________

विकल्प

  • 4

  • 6

  • 8

  • 10

MCQ

उत्तर

8

Explanation:

Hint: The given equation can be written as:

x2 – 4x + 4 = 8y – 12 + 4

∴ (x – 2)2 = 8(y – 1)

This is of the form X2 = 4bY, where 4b = 8

∴ l(L.R.) = 4b = 8
