Question

If the line y=mx+c is tangent to the circle x2+y2=5r2 and the parabola y24x2y+4λ+1=0 and point of contact of the tangent with the parabola is (8,5), then the value of (25r2+λ+2m+c) is

Solution

Parabola : (y1)2=4(xλ)
It passes through (8,5)
λ=4
So, equation of parabola is (y1)2=4(x4)

Tangent to parabola is
y1=m(x4)+1m
It passes through (8,5)
4=4m+1m
m=12
Equation of tangent is y=x2+1=mx+c
Hence, c=1

Now, y=x2+1 is the tangent to the circle x2+y2=5r2
25=5|r||r|=2525r2+λ+2m+c
=4+4+1+1=10
