The equation of normal of x2 + y2 - 2x + 4y - 5 = 0 at (2, 1) is
y = 3x - 5
2y = 3x - 4
y = 3x + 4
y = x + 1
The distance covered by a particle in t seconds is given by x = 3 + 8t - 4t2. After 1 s its velocity will be
0 unit/s
3 unit/s
4 unit/s
7 unit/s
If the tangent to the parabola y = x(2 - x) at the point (1, 1) intersects the parabola at P. Find the coordinate of P.
The given equation of parabola is,
y = x(x - 2) ...(i)
On differentiating, w.r.t. x, we get
Slope of tangent at (1, 1).
m = 2 - 2(1) = 0
Equation of tangent at (1, 1) is
(y - 1) = 0(x - 1)
On solving Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get
Thus, coordinates of point P are (1, 1)
