   Oct 1, 2024 · Solution: The slope of a tangent line can be found by finding the derivative of the curve f (x and finding the value of the derivative at the point where the tangent line and the curve meet. This gives us the slope. For example: Find the slope of the tangent line to the curve f (x) = x² at the point (1, 2).

   The tangent line to a curve at a given point is a straight line that just "touches" the curve at that point. So if the function is f (x) and if the tangent "touches" its curve at x=c, then the tangent will pass through the point (c,f (c)). The slope of this tangent line is f' (c) ( the derivative of the function f (x) at x=c).

   Normal line and tangent line drawn for a curve at a point are perpendicular to each other and hence the slope of the normal = (-1) / (slope of the tangent). A curve y = f(x) has horizontal tangents at the points where f '(x) = 0 as horizontal tangents are parallel to x-axis.

   contributed. The tangent line to a curve at a given point is the line which intersects the curve at the point and has the same instantaneous slope as the curve at the point. Finding the tangent line to a point on a curved graph is challenging and requires the use of calculus; specifically, we will use the derivative to find the slope of the curve.

   Slope of the tangent at P. The slope of a curve y = f(x) at the point P means the slope of the tangent at the point P. We need to find this slope to solve many applications since it tells us the rate of change at a particular instant. [We write y = f(x) on the curve since y is a function of x.

   How do you find the slope of a tangent line?

   • The slope of the tangent line is the same as the derivative of the curve at some point. The formula for a tangent line whose slope is m and the point given is (x1, y1 ) is given by, y – y1 = m × (x – x1 ) or y= mx + c Where c is some constant. Read More about Slope of a Line.

   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".

    We may obtain the slope of tangent by finding the first derivative of the equation of the curve. If y = f(x) is the equation of the curve, then f'(x) will be its slope. So, slope of the tangent is m = f'(x) or dy/dx. Let us look into some examples to understand the above concept. Example 1 : Find the equation of the slope of tangent to the ...
