Solution

The correct option is A (12,34)
According to Lagrange's Mean Value theorem, for a curve f(x), the tangent at point (c, f(c)) is parallel to chord joining the points (a, f(a)) and (b, f(b)) where, point c is given by f'(c)=f(b)f(a)baNow, f(x)=x2+x f'(x)=2x+12c+1=2010=2c=12f(12)=(12)2+12=34The required point is (12,34).
