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,

If one could be a billionaire by following a how-to guide step by step, you'd have already come across it by now. 

Well, the how-to "BE" part is simple; own anything that's worth a billion- an idea, an asset, a skill, anything. It is the how-to reach that milestone that is mystic. Carve your own path to it. 

Once you find the secret (IF there is one), share it on Mattrab :P 

Or maybe don't ;) let others find their own path.

                           The physical divisions of matter are:

1. Solid : Solid matter is composed of tightly packed particles. A solid will retain its shape; the particles are not free to move around.

2. Liquid : Liquid matter is made of more loosely packed particles. It will take the shape of its container. Particles can...

According to the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle, it is impossible to determine the exact spin of an electron at any given moment. The Uncertainty Principle states that the more precisely we know the position of a particle, the less precisely we can know its momentum, and vice versa. Spin is a form of intrinsic angular momentum, which means it does not correspond to any specific position in space, and therefore cannot be measured precisely at the same time as its position.

However, while we...
