Let $P$ be a point on the parabola $y^2 = 4ax$,where $a > 0$. The normal to the parabola at $P$ meets the $x$-axis at a point $Q$. The area of the triangle $PFQ$,where $F$ is the focus of the parabola,is $120$. If the slope $m$ of the normal and $a$ are both positive integers,then the pair $(a, m)$ is

If tangents are drawn from the point $(-1, 2)$ to the parabola $y^2 = 4x$, what is the area of the triangle formed by the chord of contact and the tangents (in $\sqrt{2}$)?

Let $PQ$ be a focal chord of the parabola $y^2=36x$ of length $100$,making an acute angle with the positive $x$-axis. Let the ordinate of $P$ be positive and $M$ be the point on the line segment $PQ$ such that $PM:MQ=3:1$. Then which of the following points does $NOT$ lie on the line passing through $M$ and perpendicular to the line $PQ$?

$A$ normal with slope $\frac{1}{\sqrt{6}}$ is drawn from the point $(0, -\alpha)$ to the parabola $x^2 = -4ay$,where $a > 0$. Let $L$ be the line passing through $(0, -\alpha)$ and parallel to the directrix of the parabola. Suppose that $L$ intersects the parabola at two points $A$ and $B$. Let $r$ denote the length of the latus rectum and $s$ denote the square of the length of the line segment $AB$. If $r : s = 1 : 16$,then the value of $24a$ is. . . .

$P$ is a point on the parabola $y^2 = 4ax$ $(a > 0)$ whose vertex is $A$. $PA$ is produced to meet the directrix in $D$ and $M$ is the foot of the perpendicular from $P$ on the directrix. If a circle is described on $MD$ as a diameter,then it intersects the $x$-axis at a point whose coordinates are:

The area of a triangle (in sq. units) formed by the latus rectum of the parabola $x^2=16y$ and the lines joining the vertex of the parabola to the ends of the latus rectum is
