JEE Mains · Maths · STD 11 - 10.2 parabola,ellipse,hyperbola
Let \(P(4, -4)\) and \(Q(9, 6)\) be two points on the parabola, \(y^2 = 4x\) and let \(X\) be any point on the arc \(POQ\) of this parabola, where \(O\) is the vertex of this parabola, such that the area of \(\Delta PXQ\) is maximum. Then this maximum Area (in sq. units) is
- A \(\frac{75}{2}\)
- B \(\frac{125}{4}\)
- C \(\frac{625}{4}\)
- D \(\frac{125}{2}\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(\frac{125}{4}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(^mPQ = \frac{{6 + 4}}{{9 - 4}} = 2\) \(2yy' = 4 \Rightarrow 2y \times 2 = 4 \Rightarrow y = 1,x = \frac{1}{4},X = \left( {\frac{1}{4},1} \right)\) (coordinates of points \(X\) for maximum area) \(\therefore \) area \( = \frac{{125}}{4}\) sq. units.
