Find the range of values of lamda for wh...

Find the range of values of `lamda` for which the point `(lamda,-1)` is exterior to both the parabolas `y^(2)=|x|`.

A

`a in(0, 1)`

B

`a in (-1, 1)`

C

`a in (-1, 0)`

D

none of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
The equations of the parabolas are `y^(2)=x" and "y^(2)=-x.` If the point (a, 1) is exterior to these two parabolas, then
`1-agt" and "1+agtrArralt1" and "a llgt-1rArra in (-1, 1)`
