The vertex of parabola š‘¦^2=4š‘Žš‘„
is (0,0).
Equation of a chord in the slope-intercept form is
y=kx+b (1)
Here k=tan 45Ā°=1, because a chord subtends an angle of 45Ā° at the vertex.
So, in fact (1) is given by
y=x+b (2)
On the other hand, this line passes through the point (ā€“6a, 0), consequently its coordinates satisfy equation (2):
0=-6a+b,
b=6a.
Finally, y=x+6a is the equation of chord.
Answer: y=x+6a.
