Question 1.
Find the equation of the parabola whose focus is the point F(-1, -2) and the directrix is the line 4x – 3y + 2 = 0.
Solution:
F(-1, -2)
l : 4x – 3y + 2 = 0
Let P(x, y) be any point on the parabola.
FP = PM
⇒ FP2 = PM2
⇒ (x + 1)2 + (y + 2)2 = $$\left[\frac{4 x-3 y+2}{\sqrt{4^{2}+(-3)^{2}}}\right]^{2}$$
⇒ x2 + 2x + 1 + y2 + 4y + 4 = $$\frac{16 x^{2}+9 y^{2}+4-24 x y+16 x-12 y}{(16+9)}$$
⇒ 25(x2 + y2 + 2x + 4y + 5) = 16x2 + 9y2 – 24xy + 16x – 12y + 4
⇒ (25 – 16)x2 + (25 – 9)y2 + 24xy + (50 – 16)x + (100 + 12)y + 125 – 4 = 0
⇒ 9x2 + 16y2 + 24xy + 34x + 112y + 121 = 0

Question 2.
The parabola y2 = kx passes through the point (4, -2). Find its latus rectum and focus.
Solution:
y2 = kx passes through (4, -2)
(-2)2 = k(4)
⇒ 4 = 4k
⇒ k = 1
y2 = x = 4($$\frac{1}{4}$$)x
a = $$\frac{1}{4}$$
Equation of LR is x = a or x – a = 0
i.e., x = $$\frac{1}{4}$$
⇒ 4x = 1
⇒ 4x – 1 = 0
Focus (a, 0) = ($$\frac{1}{4}$$, 0)

Question 3.
Find the vertex, focus, axis, directrix, and the length of the latus rectum of the parabola y2 – 8y – 8x + 24 = 0.
Solution:
y2 – 8y – 8x + 24 = 0
⇒ y2 – 8y – 42 = 8x – 24 + 42
⇒ (y – 4)2 = 8x – 8
⇒ (y – 4)2 = 8(x – 1)
⇒ (y – 4)2 = 4(2) (x – 1)
∴ a = 2
Y2 = 4(2)X where X = x – 1 and Y = y – 4

Question 4.
Find the co-ordinates of the focus, vertex, equation of the directrix, axis and the length of latus rectum of the parabola (a) y2 = 20x, (b) x2 = 8y, (c) x2 = -16y
Solution:
(a) y2 = 20x
y2 = 4(5)x
∴ a = 5

(b) x2 = 8y = 4(2)y
∴ a = 2

(c) x2 = -16y = -4(4)y
∴ a = 4

Question 5.
The average variable cost of the monthly output of x tonnes of a firm producing a valuable metal is ₹ $$\frac{1}{5}$$ x2 – 6x + 100. Show that the average variable cost curve is a parabola. Also, find the output and the average cost at the vertex of the parabola.
Solution:
Let output be x and average variable cost = y
y = $$\frac{1}{5}$$ x2 – 6x + 100
⇒ 5y = x2 – 30x + 500
⇒ x2 – 30x + 225 = 5y – 500 + 225
⇒ (x – 15)2 = 5y – 275
⇒ (x – 15)2 = 5(y – 55) which is of the form X2 = 4($$\frac{5}{4}$$)Y
∴ Y average variable cost curve is a parabola
Vertex (0, 0)
x – 15 = 0; y – 55 = 0
x = 15; y = 55
At the vertex, output is 15 tonnes and average cost is ₹ 55.

Question 6.
The profit ₹ y accumulated in thousand in x months is given by y = -x2 + 10x – 15. Find the best time to end the project.
Solution:
y = -x2 + 10x – 15
⇒ y = -[x2 – 10x + 52 – 52 + 15]
⇒ y = -[(x – 5)2 – 10]
⇒ y = 10 – (x – 5)2
⇒ (x – 5)2 = -(y – 10)
This is a parabola which is open downwards.
Vertex is the maximum point.
∴ Profit is maximum when x – 5 = 0 (or) x = 5 months.
