The point on the curve y = 2x2 - 4x + 5, at which the tangent is parallel to x-axis, will be

  • (1, 3)

  • (- 1, 3)

  • (1, - 3)

  • (- 1, - 3)


A.

(1, 3)

Given curve is y = 2x2 - 4x+ 5On differentiating w.r.t. x, we getdydx = 4x - 4Since, tangent to the curve is parallel to x-axis, thereforedydx = 0  4x - 4 = 0  x = 1and y = 212 - 41 + 5         = 3

Hence, point of contact is (1, 3).
