Answer: Through the fixed point F(41,0), i.e., the focus of P
Difficulty: Challenging
Assessment: Parabola, angle calculation, circumcircle and circumcenter
Analysis: Let the coordinates of A,B be (y12,y1),(y22,y2), then AC:yνy=2y12+x,BC:y2y=2y22+x ⇒C(y1y2,2y1+y2),kAC=2y11,kBC=2y21,(5 points )
Also, kFC=y1y2−412y1+y2,kFB=y22−41y2,
then tan∡FBC=1+kBCkFCkBC−kFC=−2y21,tan∡FCA=1+kACkFCkAC−kFC=−2y21
⇒∠FBC=∠FCA, similarly ∠FAC=∠FCB (15 points)
Thus, ∠AFB=∡CBF+∡ACB+∡FAC=∡ACF+∠ACB+∡FCB=2∠ACB=∠ADB indicating that the circumcircle of △ABD always passes through the fixed point F(41,0) (20 points)
