Equation of tangent to the parabola y^(2...

Equation of tangent to the parabola `y^(2)=16xx` at P(3,6) is

A

` 4x -3y+12=0`

B

`3y-4x-12=0`

C

`4x-3y-24=0`

D

`3y-x-24=0`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Equation of tangent to parabola `y^(2)=16x ` at P(3,6) is
`6y=8(x+3)`
`implies 3y=4x+12`
`implies 3y-4x-12=0`
