Let P be the parabola, whose focus is \((-2,1)\) and directrix is \(2 x+y+2=0\). Then the sum of the ordinates of the points on P , whose abscissa is -2 , is

  1. A \(\frac{3}{2}\)
  2. B \(\frac{5}{2}\)
  3. C \(\frac{1}{4}\)
  4. D \(\frac{3}{4}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\frac{3}{2}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Equation of parabola \((x+2)^2+(y-1)^2=\left(\frac{2 x+y+2}{\sqrt{5}}\right)^2\) \(5\left[(x+2)^2+(y-1)^2\right]=(2 x+y+2)^2\) Put \(x=-2,5(y-1)^2=(y-2)^2\)…
