   To find where a tangent meets the curve again, first find the equation of the tangent. Then use simultaneous equations to solve both the equation of the tangent and the equation of the curve. Each pair of x and y solutions corresponds to a coordinate (x, y) where the tangent intersects the curve.

   How do you find the equation of a tangent line?

   • To find the equation of a line you need a point and a slope. The slope of the tangent line is the value of the derivative at the point of tangency. The normal line is a line that is perpendicular to the tangent line and passes through the point of tangency. Suppose f(x) = x3 f (x) = x 3.

   What is a tangent line in calculus?

   • The tangent line of a curve at a given point is a line that just touches the curve (function) at that point. The tangent line in calculus may touch the curve at any other point (s) and it also may cross the graph at some other point (s) as well. The point at which the tangent is drawn is known as the "point of tangency".

   How do you find a tangent line to a curve?

   • y − y 1 = m (x − x 1) if (6, 1) and m = 3 y − 1 = 3 (x − 6) y = 3 x − 17 This means that to find the equation of a tangent line to a curve, f (x), we simply need two elements: point and slope. The only difference is that to find our slope (i.e., rate of change), we will use derivatives!
