Let A  2t12 ,4t1 ,B  2t 22 ,4t 2 and C  2t 23 ,4t 3  
Slope of AB = 2  t1  t 2  1 and t1  t 2  t 3  0
So, t3  1

6. Let x + 1 = X, y = Y
By shifting the origin we get
3(X – 1)2 + 5(X – 1)Y – 3Y2 + 8(X – 1) + 8Y + 5 = 0
3X2 + 5XY – 3Y2 + 2X + 3Y = 0
and 3X – 2Y = 1
making the first equation homogenous with the help of second
3X2 + 5XY – 3Y2 + (2X + 3Y)(3X – 2Y) = 0
or 9X2 + 10XY – 9Y2 = 0
