Prove that all the circles described on focal chords of the parabola as diameters, touch the directrix of the curve, and that all circles on focal radii as diameters, touch the tangent at the vertex.

A circle is described on a focal chord of the parabola , as diameter, if be the tangent of the inclination of the chord with the axis, prove that the equation to the circle is

and are two chords of a parabola, passing through a point on its axis. Prove that the radical axis of the circles described on and as diameters, passes through the vertex of the parabola.

A circle and a parabola intersect at four points; show that the algebraic sum of the ordinates of the four points is zero. Also, show that the line joining one pair of these four points and the line joining the other pair are equally inclined to the axis.

Circles are drawn through the vertex of the parabola to cut the parabola orthogonally at the other point of intersection. Prove that the locus of the centers of the circles is the curve
