Application +4 | -1

If the normal to the curve

y=f(x)

at the point

(3,4)

makes an angle

\frac{3 \pi}{4}

with the positive

x

-axis, then

f^{\prime}(3)=

View answer and explanation

Correct option: D

Option D (1) is correct because the derivative of the function at the given point is equal to the slope of the tangent, and the normal's slope is the negative reciprocal.

' for which there exists at least one line that is tangent to the graph of the curve

y=x^3-a x

at one point and normal to the graph at another point is given by The point of intersection of the tangents drawn to the curve

H

is the set of points on the curve

\mathrm{C}

where the tangent is parallel to

x

-axis and

V

is the set of points on

C

where the tangent is parallel to

y

-axis, then The curve

y-e^{x y}+x=0

has a vertical tangent at the point: If normal to the curve

y = f\left( x \right)

is parallel to

x

-axis, then The tangents to the curve

x = a\left( {\theta - \sin \theta } \right),\;y = a\left( {1 + \cos \theta } \right)

at the points

\theta = \left( {2k + 1} \right)\pi ,\;k \in Z

are parallel to:
