Find the equation of the tangent and normal to the given curves at the points given:
y = x2 at (0,0).


The equations of curve is y = x2              rightwards double arrow space space space space space space space space space dy over dx space equals space 2 straight x
At space left parenthesis 0 comma space 0 right parenthesis space dy over dx space equals space 2 left parenthesis 0 right parenthesis space equals space 0
therefore space space space space space straight m space equals space 0 comma space space space space where space straight m space is space slope space of space tangent.
therefore space space space space space space the space equation space of space tangent space at space left parenthesis 0 comma space 0 right parenthesis space is
space space space space space space space space space space space space space space straight y minus 0 space equals space 0 left parenthesis straight x minus 0 right parenthesis space space space space or space space space straight y space equals space 0
Now space the space normal space passes space through space the space origin space and space is space perpendicular space to space the space tangent space straight y space equals 0
therefore space space space space space space its space equation space is space straight x space equals 0
