Since y-axis is the mirror so centre of the mirror circle is (4, 8) and radius remain the same.

When a - -2 then eqn. of the circle is x2 + y2  - 4y - 21 = 0

When a - -6 then eqn. of the circle is x2 + y2  - 12y - 11 = 0

For Basics & Formulas : Click Here

Question 1

Find the equation of parabola which is symmetric about the Y-axis and passes through (2, -3).

Answer: 3x2 = - 4y 

Question 2

Find the coordinates of a point on the parabola y2 = 8x, whose focal distance is 4.

Solution Hint:

From the given parabola find "a" we get a = 2

Focal distance of right handed parabola is |x + a| = |x + 2|

ATQ  |x + 2| = 4 ⇒ x = 2, - 6 (x = - 6 rejected for right handed parabola) so we have x = 2

Putting x = 2 in given eqn. of parabola and find the values of y we get y = ± 4

Required points on the parabola is (2, 4) and (2, - 4)

Question 3

If the line y = mx + 1, is tangent to parabola y2 = 4x, find the value of m.

Solution Hint: 

Put the value of y from the eqn. of line to the  eqn. of parabola and find the quadratic equation in terms of x. 

Find Discriminant by using the formula D = b2 - 4ac

For tangent  Put D = 0 and find the value of m, we get m = 1

Question 4

Find the equations of the lines joining the vertex of parabola y2 = 6x to the point on it having abscissa 24.

Solution Hint

Vertex of the parabola is (0, 0)

Abscissa of the point on the parabola is 24 ⇒ x = 24

Putting x = 24 in y2 = 6x we get y = ±12

Required points on the parabola are (24, 12) and (24, -12)

Now eqn. of the line passing through (0, 0) and (24, 12) is x - 2y = 0

Now eqn. of the line passing through (0, 0) and (24, -12) is x + 2y = 0

Question 5

A beam is supported at its ends by supports which are 12 m apart. Since the load is concentrated at its centre, there is a deflection of 3 cm at the centre and the deflected beam is in the shape of a parabola. How far from the centre is the deflection 1 cm ?.

Solution Hint

Let point on the deflected beam at the deflected position as centre, represented by origin O.

OX is the x-axis and OY is the y-axis

Eqn of parabola is x2 = 4ay …. (i)

Point B lies on the parabola so coordinates of point B are (600, 3)

Putting this point in eqn. (i) we get a = 30000

So eqn of parabola becomes x2 = 120000y  …… (ii)

Let at point p the deflection is 1 cm. so deflection from the x-axis is 2 cm.

Let distance of point p from y-axis is k m or 100k cm.

So coordinates of point p are (100k, 2).

This point lie on the parabola (ii) so putting this point in eqn (ii) we get k = 2 √6 m.

Question 6

A satellite dish is in the shape of a parabolic surface .Signals from a satellite strike the surface of the dish and are reflected to a single point (the focus) where the receiver is located .The satellite dish shown in the figure has a diameter of 12 meters and a depth of 2 meters. The parabola is positioned in a rectangular coordinate system with its vertex at the origin. How far from the vertex of the dish should the receiver be placed? Also write the equation of the parabolic surface.

Since the parabola is vertical and has its vertex at origin therefore its equation must be of the form x2 = 4ay. Point (6, 2) lies on parabola so

36 = 4a(2)

⇒ a = 36/8     ⇒ a = 4. 5

Ans: Receiver should be placed 4.5 m from the vertex.

Equation of parabola x2 = 4ay

x2 = 4(4. 5)y

x2 = 18y
