Mathematics QUESTION #970

Question 2047

Let $P(4, 4\sqrt{3})$ be a point on the parabola $y^2=4ax$ and $PQ$ be a focal chord. If $M$ and $N$ are the feet of perpendiculars drawn from $P$ and $Q$ respectively on the directrix, then the area of quadrilateral $PQMN$ is equal to:

$17\sqrt{3}$
$\dfrac{263\sqrt{3}}{8}$
$\dfrac{34\sqrt{3}}{3}$
$\dfrac{343\sqrt{3}}{8}$✔️

Correct Answer Logic:

From $P(4,4\sqrt{3})$ on $y^2=4ax$: $(4\sqrt{3})^2=4a\cdot4 \Rightarrow a=3$. So directrix is $x=-3$. Using focal chord properties, find $Q$, then compute the trapezium area $PQMN = \frac{1}{2}(PM+QN)\cdot PQ_x$-component, giving $\frac{343\sqrt{3}}{8}$.
