    If \[x+y=k\]is a tangent to the parabola \[{{y}^{2}}=12x,\]then k is equal to

    A)  \[9\]               

    B)  \[-9\]

    C)  \[3\]               

    D)  \[-3\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    If \[x+y=k\Rightarrow y=-x+k\] is a tangent to the parabola \[{{y}^{2}}=12x,\] then \[k=\frac{3}{-1}=-3\] \[\left[ \because \,\,\,c=\frac{a}{m} \right]\]
