    				| 1. | The equation of the parabola having (2, 4) and (2, -4) as end points of its latus rectum is ________ (A) y2 = 4x (B) y2 = 8x (C) y2 = -16x (D) x2 = 8y | 
| Answer» Correct option is: (B) y2 = 8x The given points lie in the 1st and 4th quadrants. ∴ Equation of the parabola is y2 = 4ax End points of latus rectum are (a, 2a) and (a, -2a) ∴ a = 2 ∴ required equation of parabola is y2 = 8x | |
