Getting Quadratic and Cubic with Astroid (Posted on 2011-10-22) Difficulty: 2 of 5
The respective lengths of the perpendiculars drawn from the origin to the tangent and to the normal of the astroid x2/3 + y2/3 = a2/3 are denoted by F and G.

Determine all possible real a that satisfy this relationship:

4*F2 + G2 = a3 – 18.
