If the line $y = 4 + kx$,$k > 0$,is the tangent to the parabola $y = x - x^{2}$ at the point $P$ and $V$ is the vertex of the parabola,then the slope of the line through $P$ and $V$ is

Let $P$ be a point on the parabola $x^2 = 4y$. If the distance of $P$ from the centre of the circle $x^2 + y^2 + 6x + 8 = 0$ is minimum,then the equation of the tangent to the parabola at $P$ is:

If the tangents of the parabola $y^2=8x$ passing through the point $P(1,3)$ touch the parabola at $A$ and $B$,then the area (in sq. units) of $\triangle PAB$ is

If one of the vertices of an equilateral triangle inscribed in the parabola $y^2=12x$ coincides with the vertex of the parabola, then the area (in sq. units) of that triangle is (in $\sqrt{3}$)
