Equation of tangent to y2=4ax is
t′y=x+at′2x−t′y+at′2=0......(i)
Parametric point for x2=4by is P(2bt,bt2)
2x=4bdydxdydx=x2b
∴ Slope of tangent at P is
m=2bt2b=t
⇒slope of normal =−1t
Equation of normal at P is
y−bt2=−1t(x−2bt)ty−bt3=−x+2btx+ty−bt3−2bt=0........(ii)
Now the tangent and normal are common, so (i) and (ii) are equation of same line
11=−t′t=at′2−bt3−2bt⇒t′=−t−bt3−2bt=at′2bt3+at′2+2bt=0
Put t′=−t
bt3+at2+2bt=0t(bt2+at+2b)=0bt2+at+2b=0
For roots to be real D>0
(a)2−4(b)(2b)>0a2−8b2>0a2>8b2
Hence proved
