Correct answer
116
Step-by-step explanation
Given,
The tangent to the parabola at the point be perpendicular to the line
So, Slope of tangent
So, equation of hyperbola will be,
Now equation of tangent at will be,
So, slope of normal
Now finding, equation of normal
Now finding,distance from , we get,
Hence,
