The correct answer is: 13

The given curve is y=2x2+x+2

dydx=4x+1

Let P be h,k, then normal at P is

y-k=-14h+1x-h

Since this normal passes through Q6,4

 4-k=-14h+16-h

4h+14-k+6-h=0

Also  k=2h2+h+2

 4h+14-2h2-h-2+6+h=0

4h3-3h2+3h-8=0

h=1,k=5

So P1,5

Now area of OPQ will be =12100115164=13
