Given parabola is y2 = 4ax.
And given line is lx+my+n = 0.
According to given condition OQ \(\bot\) OP where P and Q are points at which line intersects parabola.
Let point P and Q are \(P(at^2_1,2at_1)\) and \(Q(at^2_2,2at_2)\)
Slope of line OP is m1 \(=\frac{2at_1}{at^2_1}=\frac2{t_1}\)
And slope of line OQ is m2 \(=\frac{2at_2}{at^2_2}=\frac2{t_2}\)
∵ OQ \(\bot\) OP
∴ m1m2 = -1
⇒ 2/t1 x 2/t2 = -1
⇒ t1t2 = -4 ...(1)
Since, point P and Q lies on line lx+my+n = 0.
∴ \(lat^2_1+2mat_1+n=0\) (Point P satisfies equation of line)
And \(lat^2_2+2mat_2+n=0\) (Point Q satisfies equation of line)
As t1 and t2 are roots of lat+2mat+n = 0.
∴ t1t2 = Product of roots = c/a = n/la
⇒ n/la = -4 (From equation (i))
⇒ n = -4la
⇒ n+4la = 0
Hence option (a) is correct.
