a.Find the equation of the normal to the curve y=x2|x|atx=2.
b. Find the equation of tangent to the curve
y=sin12x1+x2atx=3

Solution

We have,

y=x2|x|

On differentiating and we get,

dydx=2x1

At point (x=2)

Then,

(dydx)(x=2)=|2×(2)1|

(dydx)(x=2)=|5|

(dydx)(x=2)=5

\end{align}$

Now the equation of normal is

yy1=m(xx1)

y3=1m(x+2)fornormal

y3=15(x+2)

5y15=(x+2)

5y15=x2

5y15x+2=0

x+5y13=0

x5y+13=0

Hence, this is the answer.
