\(\frac {14}{3}\)
\(4\)
\(\frac {32}{3}\)
\(6\)
The correct answer is (D), which is \(6\).
Two parabolas have the same focus $(4, 3)$ and their directrices are the $x$-axis and the $y$-axis, respectively. If these parabolas intersect at the points $A$ and $B$, then $(AB)^2$ is equal to:
If \( x^2 = -16y \) is an equation of a parabola, then:
(A) Directrix is \( y = 4 \)
(B) Directrix is \( x = 4 \)
(C) Co-ordinates of focus are \( (0, -4) \)
(D) Co-ordinates of focus are \( (-4, 0) \)
(E) Length of latus rectum is 16
