The correct option is
B 4atanαsecαEquation of parabola x2=4ay
Vertex of parabola (0)=(0,0)
Equation of chord passing through vertex y−y1=m(x−x1)
Here, x1=0 and y1=0
y−0=m(x−0)
∴y=mx
Now, slope=m=tanα
Let the chord intersect the parabola at P(h,k)
Since, point P lies on chord
k=(tanα)h ………..(1)
Point P lies on parabola
h2=4ak ………(2)
Substituting equation (1) in (2)
∴h2=4a(tanα×h)
∴h2(h−4atanα)=0
∴h=0
h=4atanα
Substituting h=4atanα in equation (2), we get
∴(4a)2tan2α=4ak
∴k=4atan2α
∴p=(h,k)=(4atanα,4atan2α)
Distance OP=√(4atanα−0)2+(4atan2α−0)
=√16a2tan2α+16a2tan4α
=4atanα√1+tan2α
=4atanα√sec2α
=4atanαsecα.
