How do you find the slope of the line tangent to the curve at the point ?
Finding the slope of the tangent:
Given, that the equation of the curve is .
A point on the curve is .
Step- 1: Differentiating the equation of the curve.
Step 2. Substituting the value of and in order to get the slope of the tangent.
As, is the slope of the tangent.
Thus the slope of the tangent is .
Hence, the slope of the tangent to the curve at point is .
