Answer:

  • Parallel : 2x−y+2=0 ; Point of contact = (1,4)
  • Perpendicular : x+2y+16=0 ; Point of contact = (16,-16)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

y² = 16x is a parabola

To find :

  • Equations of tangents which are parallel and perpendicular to 2x−y+5=0.
  • co-ordinates of their points of contact.

Solution :

Equation of the parabola is y² = 16x [a = 4]

The tangent is parallel to 2x−y+5=0

Equation of the tangent can be taken as y=2x+c

We know that, If a line is tangent to a parabola then, c = a/m

c = 4/2 = 2

Thus, Equation of the tangent can be taken as y=2x+2

2x−y+2=0

---------------------

We know that, The coordinates of point of contact is given by

\bigg(\dfrac{a}{m^2} \ , \, \dfrac{2a}{m}\bigg)

\text{Point of contact = } \mathrm {\bigg(\dfrac{4}{4},  \dfrac{8}{2} \bigg) } = (1,4)

__________________________

Perpendicular slope to given line is -1/2 ( = m')

So, tangent formed by it is of the form y = -\dfrac{1}{2}x + c'

Now,

c' = \dfrac{a}{m'} = \dfrac{4}{(-\frac{1}{2} )} = -8

Equation of the perpendicular tangent is

y = -\dfrac{1}{2}x -8

⇒2y=−x-16

⇒x+2y+16=0

----------------------------

We know that, The coordinates of point of contact is given by

\bigg(\dfrac{a}{m^2} \ , \, \dfrac{2a}{m}\bigg)

\text{Point of contact = } \mathrm {\bigg(\dfrac{4}{(\frac{1}{4}) },  \dfrac{8}{(-\frac{1}{2} )} \bigg) } = (16,-16)

Hope it helps!!
