- $4 y^2-18 y+3 x+18=0$
- $4 y^2-18 y-3 x+18=0$
- $4 y^2+18 y+3 x+18=0$
- $4 y^2-18 y-3 x-18=0$

The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
\(y^2=6x\; \&\;y^2=4ax\)
\(⇒4a=6⇒a=23\)
\(y=mx+2m^3;(m\neq0)\)
\(h=\frac{6m−3}{4m^2},k=\frac{6m+3}{4m}\), Now eliminating m and we get
\(⇒3h=2(−2k^2+9k−9)\)
\(⇒4y^2−18y+3x+18=0\)
\(\text{The Correct Option is (C):}\) \(4 y^2+18 y+3 x+18=0\)

- Consider the ellipse \(\frac{x^2}{9}+\frac{y^2}{4}=1\). Let S (p, q) be a point in the first quadrant such that \(\frac{p^2}{9}+\frac{q^2}{4}>1\). Two tangents are drawn from S to the ellipse, of which one meets the ellipse at one end point of the minor axis and the other meets the ellipse at a point T in the fourth quadrant. Let R be the vertex of the ellipse with positive x-coordinate and Obe the center of the ellipse. If the area of the triangle △ORT is \(\frac{3}{2}\) , then which of the following options is correct ?

Concepts Used:
Sections of a Cone
There are four sections of a cone:
- Circle- It is the locus of a point that moves in a certain plane around a fixed distance. The equation of a circle with center (h,k) and the radius r is: \((x–h)^2 + (y–k)^2 =r^2\)
- Ellipse- It is the set of all points in a plane, the sum of the whose distance from two fixed points in a plane is constant. With the foci on the x-axis, the equation of an ellipse is shown as: \(\frac{x^2}{a^2}+\frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1\)
- Parabola- It is a locus of a point that moves so that its distance from a fixed point is equivalent to the distance from the moving point to fixed straight lines. When the parabola has a focus at (a,0), where, {a > 0} and directrix {x = -a}, its equation is shown as \(y^2 = 4ax\).
- Hyperbola- It is the set of all points in a plane, the difference of whose distance from any two fixed points in the plane is constant. The equation of a hyperbola having its foci on the x-axis is: \(\frac{x^2}{a^2}-\frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1\)
