MCQ
A tangent is drawn to the parabola $y^{2}=6 x$ which is perpendicular to the line $2 x + y =1$ Which of the following points does $NOT$ lie on it ?
  • A
    $(-6,0)$
  • B
    $(4,5)$
  • $(5,4)$
  • D
    $(0,3)$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$(5,4)$
c
Slope of tangent $= m _{ T }= m$

So, $m(-2)=-1 \Rightarrow m=\frac{1}{2}$

Equation : $y = mx +\frac{ a }{ m }$

$\Rightarrow y=\frac{1}{2} x+\frac{3}{2 \times \frac{1}{2}}\left(a=\frac{6}{4}=\frac{3}{2}\right)$

$\Rightarrow y=\frac{x}{2}+3$

$\Rightarrow 2 y=x+6$

Point $(5,4)$ will not lie on it
