Three normals are drawn from the point $$(c, 0)$$ to the curve $${y^2} = x.$$ Show that $$c$$ must be greater than $$1/2$$. One normal is always the $$x$$-axis. Find $$c$$ for which the other two normals are perpendicular to each other.

$$A$$ is point on the parabola $${y^2} = 4ax$$. The normal at $$A$$ cuts the parabola again at point $$B$$. If $$AB$$ subtends a right angle at the vertex of the parabola. Find the slope of $$AB$$.

Suppose that the normals drawn at three different points on the parabola $${y^2} = 4x$$ pass through the point $$(h, k)$$. Show that $$h>2$$.
