If normals drawn from a point P(h,k) to the parabola `y^(2)=4ax`, then the sum of the intercepts which the normals cut-off from the axis of the parabola is

Explanation

let `x_1, x_2, x_3` be the intercept on the axis of parabola

eqn of normal `y = mx-2am-am^3`

`y=0`

`mx= 2am+ am^3`

`x= 2a+am^2`

`x_1=2a+ am_1^2`

`x_2= 2a+am_2^2 & x_3= 2a+ am_3^2`
