To find the value of \( \alpha \) for which the point \( (\alpha - 1, \alpha) \) lies inside the parabola defined by the equation \( y^2 = 4x \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the condition for the point to be inside the parabola The parabola \( y^2 = 4x \) opens to the right. A point \( (x, y) \) lies inside the parabola if the following condition holds: \[ y^2 < 4x \] ...
