The length of the latus rectum of the parabola whose focus is `(u^2/2g sin2alpha, -u^2/2g cos2alpha) and directrix is `y=u^2/2g`,is

A

`(u^(2))/(g)cos^(2)alpha`

B

`(u^(2))/(g)cos2alpha`

C

`(2u^(2))/(g)cos2alpha`

D

`(2u^(2))/(g)cos^(2)alpha`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

(4) Length of latus rectum `=2xx` Distance of focus from directrix
`=2|(-(u^(2))/(2g)cos2alpha-(u^(2))/(2g))/(sqrt(1))|`
`=(2u^(2))/(g)cos^(2)alpha`
