If the parabola of `y^2=4ax` passes through the point (3,2), find the length of its latus rectum.

A

`2/3`

B

`4/3`

C

`1/3`

D

`4`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
It is given the parabola `y^(2)=4 ax` passes through (3, 2).
`:." "4=12arArra=1//3`
Hence, length of L.R.=4 `a = 4/3`
