About this document
Tangents and Normals to Curves by JIDHUN NK is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document discusses tangent lines and normals to curves. It defines tangent lines as limiting positions of secant lines as they approach a point on a curve. The derivative of a curve at a point equals the slope of the tangent line at that point. Equations are provided for the tangent line and normal line to a curve at a given point based on the derivative. Several examples are worked out finding slopes of tangents and normals to curves at specified points. Geometric interpretations and applications are a
