Solution

The sum of slopes of normal to all the standard parabolas i.e. y2=4ax,y2=4ax,x2=4ay and x2=4ay at their respective parametric coordinate is 0.
Since, slope for parabola y2=4ax is t,
For y2=4ax slope is t,
For x2=4ay slope is 1t
And, for x2=4ay slope is 1t
So, on adding we get,
t+t1t+1t=0.
