Parabola Flashcards
eccentricity of a parabola
e=1
condition for parabola!?
PS/PM = constant = e = 1
therefore PS=PM
coordinate of focus for a standard parabola y^2=4ax
equation of directrix for a standard parabola
length of latus rectum
coordinate of focus:- (a,0)
equation of directrix:- x=-a
length of latus rectum:- 4a
parametric coordinates for a standard parabola
( at^2 , 2at)
relation of the parametric (t) for two points at the end of a focal chord
lentgh of focal chord with given parametric(t) or with given angle of the focal chord with the x axis
realtion between the sem latus rectum , and the l1,l2
condition of tangency for a parabola tangentq
c=a/m
length of the chord in a parabola with given m,a, c of the chord and parabola
conversions done to the main equation to make it into a tangent equation
equation of tangent with parametric given
equation of tangent with a given slope of tangent
relation between slope and parameter of a tangent
point of contact of tangents on the parabola with given parameter or slope
point of intersection of tangents at point t1 and t2
