Question

Statement-1: The slope of a tangent to $y^2=4ax$ (axis of $x$) is inversely proportional to the ordinate. Statement-2: $y^2=4ax$ satisfies a differential equation of degree 1, order 1.

Accepted Answer

Both statements are individually true, but Statement-2 (about degree/order) is not the reasoning behind Statement-1 (about proportionality).
