Q.

Let y2 = 2x the parabola and S be its focus. Let PQ be a focal chord of the parabola such that (SP) (SQ)=1474. Let C be the circle described taking PQ as a diameter. If the equation of a circle C is 64x2 + 64y2 – αx – 643y = β, then β – α is equal to _________.

Detailed Solution

y2=12x  a=3  SP×SQ=1474
Let P(3t2, 6t) and t1t2 = –1
(ends of focal chord)
 So, Q3t2,-6t
S(3, 0)
SP × SQ = PM1 × QM2
(dist. from directrix)
=3+3t23+3t2=14741+t22t2=4912t2=34,43t=±32,±23
considering t=32
P94,33 and Q(4,43)
Hence, diametric circle:
(x4)x94+(y+33)(y43)=0x2+y2254x3y27=0α=400,β=1728βα=1328
