Find the equation of the tangent and the normal to the following curves at the indicated points:

finding the slope of the tangent by differentiating the curve





m(tangent) at =


normal is perpendicular to tangent so, m1m2 = – 1


m(normal) at =


equation of tangent is given by y – y1 = m(tangent)(x – x1)



equation of normal is given by y – y1 = m(normal)(x – x1)
