If two tangent from a point P to the parabola y2 = 16(x – 3) are at right angles, then the locus of point P is:
If two tangent from a point P to the parabola y2 = 16(x – 3) are at right angles, then the locus of point P is:
Locus of point of intersection of perpendicular tangent will be its director circle & director circle of parabola be its directrix.
Given parabola y2 = 16 (x – 3) so equation of directrix be x – 3 = - 4 i.e., x + 1 = 0
