The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the conditions given for the parabola and the ellipse. ### Step 1: Find the equation of the tangent to the parabola The equation of the parabola is given by \( y^2 = 4x \). The point on the parabola is \( (t^2, 2t) \). The equation of the tangent to the parabola at the point \( (t^2, 2t) \) is given by: \[ yy_1 = 2(x + x_1) \] Substituting \( (x_1, y_1) = (t^2, 2t) \): \[ y(2t) = 2(x + t^2) \] This simplifies to: \[ 2ty = 2x + 2t^2 \implies ty = x + t^2 \implies x - ty + t^2 = 0 \] ### Step 2: Find the equation of the normal to the ellipse The equation of the ellipse is given by: \[ \frac{x^2}{5} + \frac{y^2}{4} = 1 \] The point on the ellipse is \( \left(\sqrt{5} \cos \alpha, 2 \sin \alpha\right) \). The equation of the normal to the ellipse at the point \( (x_1, y_1) \) is given by: \[ \frac{a^2}{x_1^2}(x - x_1) + \frac{b^2}{y_1^2}(y - y_1) = 0 \] Where \( a^2 = 5 \) and \( b^2 = 4 \). Substituting \( (x_1, y_1) = \left(\sqrt{5} \cos \alpha, 2 \sin \alpha\right) \): \[ \frac{5}{5 \cos^2 \alpha}(x - \sqrt{5} \cos \alpha) + \frac{4}{4 \sin^2 \alpha}(y - 2 \sin \alpha) = 0 \] This simplifies to: \[ \frac{1}{\cos^2 \alpha}(x - \sqrt{5} \cos \alpha) + \frac{1}{\sin^2 \alpha}(y - 2 \sin \alpha) = 0 \] Multiplying through by \( \cos^2 \alpha \sin^2 \alpha \): \[ \sin^2 \alpha (x - \sqrt{5} \cos \alpha) + \cos^2 \alpha (y - 2 \sin \alpha) = 0 \] Expanding this gives: \[ \sin^2 \alpha x - \sqrt{5} \sin^2 \alpha \cos \alpha + \cos^2 \alpha y - 2 \cos^2 \alpha \sin \alpha = 0 \] ### Step 3: Set the equations equal Now we have the equations for the tangent and the normal: 1. Tangent: \( x - ty + t^2 = 0 \) 2. Normal: \( \sin^2 \alpha x + \cos^2 \alpha y = \sqrt{5} \sin^2 \alpha \cos \alpha + 2 \cos^2 \alpha \sin \alpha \) For these to be the same, their coefficients must be proportional. ### Step 4: Find the relationships From the tangent equation, we can express \( t \) in terms of \( \alpha \): \[ \frac{1}{t} = \frac{\sin^2 \alpha}{1} \quad \text{and} \quad \frac{1}{t^2} = \frac{\cos^2 \alpha}{1} \] This leads to relationships between \( t \), \( \sin \alpha \), and \( \cos \alpha \). ### Step 5: Analyze the conditions From the relationships derived, we can analyze which conditions are not true based on the values of \( t \) and \( \alpha \). ### Conclusion After analyzing the derived equations and their relationships, we can conclude which statements about \( t \) and \( \alpha \) are not true based on the conditions set by the problem.
