Q. Equation of tangent to the parabola $y^{2} = 16x\$at $P(3,\ 6)$ is
A) $4x - 3y + 12 = 0$
B) $3y - 4x - 12 = 0$
C) $4x - 3y - 24 = 0$
D) $3y - x - 24 = 0$
Explanation
(b)
Equation of tangent to parabola $y^{2}16x\ at\ P(3,6)$ is
$6y = 8(x + 3)$
$\Rightarrow 3y = 4x + 12$
$\Rightarrow 3y - 4x - 12 = 0\$
