engineering mathematics MCQ #464

  1. Question 1

    Q1. The equation of the tangent to the parabola y² = 4ax at (at², 2at) is

    • A) ty = x + at²
    • B) y = tx + at²
    • C) tx = y + at²
    • D) t²y = x + at³

    Answer: ty = x + at²

    Explanation: The tangent to y² = 4ax at (at², 2at) is given by ty = x + at², using the point-slope form and the slope at the given point.
