If $(-1,-1)$ is the focus and $x+y+4=0$ is the directrix of a parabola,then its vertex is

Let $P, Q,$ and $R$ be three co-normal points on the parabola $y^2 = 4ax$. Then the correct statement$(s)$ is/are:

$A$ line $L: y=mx+3$ meets the $y$-axis at $E(0,3)$ and the arc of the parabola $y^2=16x, 0 \leq y \leq 6$ at the point $F(x_0, y_0)$. The tangent to the parabola at $F(x_0, y_0)$ intersects the $y$-axis at $G(0, y_1)$. The slope $m$ of the line $L$ is chosen such that the area of the triangle $EFG$ has a local maximum.
Match List $I$ with List $II$ and select the correct answer using the code given below the lists:
List $I$ List $II$
$P. \quad m=$ $1. \quad 1/2$
