Let V be the vertex and L be the latusrectum of the parabola x2 = 2y + 4x – 4. Then the equation of the parabola whose vertex is at V, latusrectum is L/2 and axis is perpendicular to the axis of the given parabola.

(a) y2 = x – 2

(b) y2 = x – 4

(c) y2 = 2 – x

(d) y2 = 4 – x

Sol.     x2 – 4x = 2y – 4

 

            x2 – 4x + 4 = 2y – 4 + 4

 

            (x – 2)2 = 2y

 

            vertex of parabola (2, 0) and length of latusrectum = 2

 

length of latusrectum of the required parabola = 1

 

\         equation of the required parabola is

 

            (y – 0)2 = + 1(x – 2)

 

            y2 = x – 2 or y2 = 2 – x
