Nov 20, 2023 · For the curve y = f(x), you can find the equation of the normal at the point (a, f(a)) using Examiner Tip The formulae above are not in the exam formulae booklet, but if you understand what tangents and normals are, then the formulae follow from the equation of a straight line combined with parallel and perpendicular gradients (see Worked Example below).
