Two confocal parabola intersect at A and B. If their axis are parallel to x-axis and y-axis respectively, then slope of chord AB can be :
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
CHECK THE SOLUTION.
(a,b)Let directrix are x-axis & y-axis respectively and they intersect in Ι st quadrant.
Then A & B are of the type ( α, α ) & ( β, β ) ⇒ slope of AB is 1
similarly slope can also be equal to –1.
