The focus of the parabola y^(2)-4y-8x+4=...

The focus of the parabola `y^(2)-4y-8x+4=0` is,

A

(1, 1)

B

(1, 2)

C

(2, 1)

D

(2, 2)

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

We have, `y^(2)-4y-8x+4=0rArr(y-2)^(2)=8(x-0)`
We know that the coordinates of the focus of the parabola `y^(2)=4ax` are (a, 0).
So, the coordinates of the focus of (i) are given by
`x-0=0" and "y-2=0rArrx=2, y=2`
Hence, the coordinates of the focus arem (2, 2).
