Given:- ;
, where a is any positive real number.
Consider the helix parabolic equation :
now, take the derivatives we get;
As, we know that two vectors are orthogonal if their dot product is zero.
Here, are orthogonal i.e,
Therefore, we have ,
take t common in above equation we get,
⇒ or
To find the solution for t;
take
The number determined from the coefficients of the equation
The determinant
Since, for any positive value of a determinant is negative.
Therefore, there is no solution.
The only solution, we have t=0.
Hence, we have only one points on the parabola i.e <1,0>
