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
  1. 26
  2. 214
  3. 46
  4. 414

Solution

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

Now plotting the diagram we get,

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=-mc=-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
