Here, the given equation of parabola is y2= 8x.

The equation of tangent to the parabola y2=8x is,

y= mx + 2/m

This tangent passes through the point (-2, 3)

So, 3 = -2m + 2/m

or, 3m + 2m2 = 2

or, 2m2+3m - 2= 0

or, 2m2 + (4 - 1)m -2 = 0

or, 2m2 + 4m - m - 2 = 0

or, 2m(m + 2) - 1(m+2) = 0

or, (m + 2) (2m - 1) = 0

Either, Or,

m = -2 m = 1/2

Required angle is,

In the air, there's nothing holding the body of the helicopter still - so the rotor blades spin one direction, but the torque applied to spin the rotors tries to spin the body of the helicopter in the opposite direction. The little rotor on the tail helps keep the body of the helicopter pointed in the same direction.
