The tangent to the parabola y² = 24x at (alpha, beta) is perpendicular to the line 2x + 2y = 5. For the hyperbola x²/alpha² - y²/beta² = 1, the normal at the point (alpha + 4, beta + 4) does NOT pass through which point?

  1. (25, 10)
  2. (20, 12)
  3. (30, 8)
  4. (15, 13)

Correct answer: (15, 13)

Solution

Tangent slope 1 gives the contact point, fixing alpha and beta; constructing the hyperbola normal at (alpha+4, beta+4) and testing the points shows (15,13) is not on it.
