The sum of squares of all possible values of k, for which area of the region bounded by the parabolas 2y2=kx and ky2=2yx is maximum, is equal to:

Solution

Given: ky2=2yx, 2y2=kx

Finding the point of intersection,

ky2=2y2y2k

y=0 and ky=212yk

ky+4yk=2

y=2k+4k

y=2kk2+4

So, the required area is given by,

A=02kk2+4yky222y2kdy

A=y22k2+2ky3302kk2+4

A=2kk2+4212k2+42k×13×2kk2+4

A=16×4×1k+4k2

We know that, AMGM

k+4k22

k+4k4

So, area is maximum when k=4k.

k=2,2

Hence, the sum of squares of all possible values of k is 8.
