Find the required point be P(x1, y1)dot ...

Find the required point be `P(x_1, y_1)dot` The tangent to the curve `sqrt(x)+sqrt(y)=4` at which tangent is equally inclined to the axes.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
The required conditions are `(4,4)`

We have, `\sqrt{x}+\sqrt{y}=4` $$ \begin{aligned} &\Rightarrow x^{1 / 2}+y^{1 / 2}=4 \\ &\Rightarrow \frac{1}{2 \cdot 1} /\left(x^{1 / 2}\right)+\frac{1}{2} \cdot\left(\frac{1}{y^{1 / 2}}\right) \cdot \frac{d y}{d x}=0 \\ &\frac{d y}{d x}=-\frac{1}{2} \cdot x^{-1 / 2} 2 \cdot y^{1 / 2} \\ &=-\sqrt{\frac{y}{x}} \end{aligned} ...
