Which of the following points lie on the parabola $x^2 = 4ay$?

The equation of a parabola which passes through the intersection points of the straight line $x + y = 0$ and the circle $x^2 + y^2 + 4y = 0$ is:

$A$ line $L: y=mx+3$ meets the $y$-axis at $E(0,3)$ and the arc of the parabola $y^2=16x, 0 \leq y \leq 6$ at the point $F(x_0, y_0)$. The tangent to the parabola at $F(x_0, y_0)$ intersects the $y$-axis at $G(0, y_1)$. The slope $m$ of the line $L$ is chosen such that the area of the triangle $EFG$ has a local maximum.
Match List $I$ with List $II$ and select the correct answer using the code given below the lists:
List $I$ List $II$
$P. \quad m=$ $1. \quad 1/2$
$Q. \quad \text{Maximum area of } \triangle EFG \text{ is}$ $2. \quad 4$
$R. \quad y_0=$ $3. \quad 2$
$S. \quad y_1=$ $4. \quad 1$

Codes: $P \quad Q \quad R \quad S$
