Q47 / 90 · JEE Main 2022 (29 Jul Shift 1) · Mathematics

Let the focal chord of the parabola P:y2=4x along the line L:y=mx+c,m>0 meet the parabola at the points M and N. Let the line L be a tangent to the hyperbola H:x2-y2=4. If O is the vertex of P and F is the focus of H on the positive x-axis, then the area of the quadrilateral OMFN is

  • A
    26
  • Correct answer
    B
    214
  • C
    46
  • D
    414

Solution

Given, parabola y2=4x and line L: y=mx+c,

Now plotting the diagram we get,

Figure

Now focus of hyperbola, H:x24-y24=1 will be  ae,0 ⇒F22,0

Now given line L:y=mx+c pass focus of parabola 1,0

⇒0=m+c     ⋯1

Now also given line L is tangent to Hyperbola. x24-y24=1

So by using condition of tangent to hyperbola in slope form we get, c=±a2 m2-l2

⇒c=±4m2-4

Now from 1 we get, -m=±4 m2-4

Squaring both side we get, m2=4 m2-4

⇒4=3m2

⇒m=23  (as m>0)

So, c=-m⇒c=-23

So equation of line will be y=2x3-23

Now finding intersecting point of line and parabola y2=4x we get,

⇒2x-232=4x

⇒x2+1-2x=3x

⇒x2-5x+1=0

⇒x1+x2=5 & x1x2=1

y2=43y+22

y2=23y+4

⇒y2-23y-4=0

⇒y1+y2=23 & y1y2=-4

Area of required quadrilateral will be 

=120x122x200y10y20

=12-22y1+22y2

=2y2-y1=212+16111

=56​​​​​​​=214

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
