Let $O$ be the vertex of the parabola $x^{2}=4y$ and $Q$ be any point on it. Let the locus of the point $P$, which divides the line segment $OQ$ internally in the ratio $2:3$, be the conic $C$. Then the equation of the chord of $C$, which is bisected at the point $(1, 2)$, is:

Suppose that the equation $f(x) = x^{2} + bx + c = 0$ has two distinct real roots $\alpha$ and $\beta$. The angle between the tangent to the curve $y = f(x)$ at the point $\left(\frac{\alpha + \beta}{2}, f\left(\frac{\alpha + \beta}{2}\right)\right)$ and the positive direction of the $x$-axis is (in $^{\circ}$)

Let $A(1, 2)$,$B(4, -4)$,and $C(2, 2\sqrt{2})$ be points on the parabola $y^2 = 4x$. If $\alpha$ and $\beta$ respectively represent the area of $\triangle ABC$ and the area of the triangle formed by the tangents at $A, B, C$ to the parabola,then $\alpha \beta =$

If the normal chord drawn at the point $\left(\frac{15}{2}, \frac{15}{\sqrt{2}}\right)$ to the parabola $y^2=15x$ subtends an angle $\theta$ at the vertex of the parabola,then $\sin \frac{\theta}{3}+\cos \frac{2\theta}{3}-\sec \frac{4\theta}{3}=$
