Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) 3

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Equation of family of parabola with focus at origin and the \(X\)-axis its axis is \[ \begin{aligned} & & y^2 & =-4 a(x-a) \\ \Rightarrow & & y^2 & =-4 a x+4 a^2 \\ \Rightarrow & & 2 y y^{\prime} & =-4 a \\ \Rightarrow & & a & =-\frac{y y^{\prime}}{2} \end{aligned} \] Putting…
