If \(\mathrm{x}=\mathrm{t}^{2}+2\) and \(\mathrm{y}=2 \mathrm{t}\) represent the parametric equation of the parabola

  1. A \(x^{2}=4(y-2)\)
  2. B \((\mathrm{y}-2)^{2}=4 \mathrm{x}\)
  3. C \(y^{2}=4(x-2)\)
  4. D \((x-2)^{2}=4 y\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(y^{2}=4(x-2)\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Since, the parametric equation \(x=t^{2}+2\) and
\[
\begin{array}{ll}
y=2 t . & \\
\therefore & x-2=t^{2} \\
\Rightarrow & x-2=\frac{y^{2}}{4} \\
\Rightarrow & y^{2}=4(x-2)
\end{array}
\]
