JEE Mains · Maths · STD 11 - 10.2 parabola,ellipse,hyperbola

Two tangent lines \(l_{1}\) and \(l_{2}\) are drawn from the point \((2,0)\) to the parabola \(2 y^{2}=-x\). If the lines \(l_{1}\) and \(l_{2}\) are also tangent to the circle \((x-5)^{2}+y^{2}=r\), then \(17 r\) is equal to.

  1. A \(7\)
  2. B \(8\)
  3. C \(0\)
  4. D \(9\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(9\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Sol. \(y^{2}=-\frac{x}{2}\) \(y=m x-\frac{1}{8 m}\) this tangent pass through \((2,0)\) \(m =\pm \frac{1}{4}\) i.e., one tangent is \(x -4 y -2=0\) \(17\,r =9\)
