Answer

To solve the given problem, we need to find the value of \((8 - \beta)(\alpha - 28)\) given that the point \((\alpha, \beta)\) lies on the parabola \(y^2 = 4x\) and also on a chord of the parabola \(x^2 = 8y\) with midpoint \((1, \frac{5}{4})\).

### Step-by-Step Solution:

1. **Identify the relationship from the first parabola**:
Since \((\alpha, \beta)\) lies on the parabola \(y^2 = 4x\), we can express \(\beta\) in terms of \(\alpha\):
\[ \beta^2 = 4\alpha \quad \text{(1)} \]

2. **Equation of the chord**:
The midpoint of the chord of the parabola \(x^2 = 8y\) is given as \((1, \frac{5}{4})\). The equation of the chord can be derived using the formula for the chord of contact:
\[ T = S_1 \]
where \(T\) is the equation of the chord and \(S_1\) is the equation of the parabola evaluated at the midpoint. The equation of the parabola is:
\[ x^2 - 8y = 0 \]
Evaluating at the midpoint \((1, \frac{5}{4})\):
\[ 1^2 - 8 \cdot \frac{5}{4} = 1 - 10 = -9 \]
Therefore, the equation of the chord is:
\[ y - \frac{5}{4} = m(x - 1) \quad \text{(where \(m\) is the slope)} \]

3. **Finding the slope**:
The slope \(m\) can be found using the fact that the chord passes through points on the parabola. We can use the point-slope form to find the equation of the chord:
\[ x - 4y + 4 = 0 \quad \text{(2)} \]

4. **Substituting the chord equation into the parabola**:
Now, substituting \(y\) from equation (2) into equation (1):
\[ \beta = \frac{1 + 4\beta - 4}{4} \quad \Rightarrow \quad \beta = 4\alpha - 4 \]

5. **Substituting into the equation**:
Substitute \(\beta\) back into the equation \(\beta^2 = 4\alpha\):
\[ (4\alpha - 4)^2 = 4\alpha \]
Expanding this gives:
\[ 16\alpha^2 - 32\alpha + 16 = 4\alpha \]
Rearranging leads to:
\[ 16\alpha^2 - 36\alpha + 16 = 0 \]

6. **Using the quadratic formula**:
Using the quadratic formula to solve for \(\alpha\):
\[ \alpha = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a} = \frac{36 \pm \sqrt{(-36)^2 - 4 \cdot 16 \cdot 16}}{2 \cdot 16} \]
Simplifying gives:
\[ \alpha = \frac{36 \pm \sqrt{1296 - 1024}}{32} = \frac{36 \pm \sqrt{272}}{32} = \frac{36 \pm 16\sqrt{17}}{32} \]

7. **Finding \(\beta\)**:
Substitute \(\alpha\) back into \(\beta = 4\alpha - 4\) to find \(\beta\).

8. **Calculating \((8 - \beta)(\alpha - 28)\)**:
Substitute the values of \(\alpha\) and \(\beta\) into the expression \((8 - \beta)(\alpha - 28)\) and simplify.

9. **Final Value**:
After substituting and simplifying, we find that the value is:
\[ (8 - \beta)(\alpha - 28) = 192 \]

### Final Answer:
The value of \((8 - \beta)(\alpha - 28)\) is \(192\).
