  • question_answer
    Equation of the parabola whose directrix is \[y=2x-9\] and focus (?8, ?2) is

    A)            \[{{x}^{2}}+4{{y}^{2}}+4xy+16x+2y+259=0\]

    B)            \[{{x}^{2}}+4{{y}^{2}}+4xy+116x+2y+259=0\]

    C)            \[{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}+4xy+116x+2y+259=0\]

    D)            None of these

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

               Let any point on it be (x, y), then from definition of parabola, we get \[\frac{\sqrt{{{(x+8)}^{2}}+{{(y+2)}^{2}}}}{\left| \frac{2x-y-9}{\sqrt{5}} \right|}=1\]            Squaring and after simplification, we get            \[{{x}^{2}}+4{{y}^{2}}+4xy+116x+2y+259=0\].
