Find the slopes of the tangent and the normal to the curve `x^2+3y y2=5` at `(1,1)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
Slope at tangent `=frac{-2}{5}`

Slope at normal `=frac{5}{2}`

ATQ, Eq of the curve is $$ x^{2}+3 y+y^{2}=5 $$ On differentiating both sides w.r.t. `x` , we get $$ \begin{aligned} &2 x+3 \frac{d y}{d x}+2 y \frac{d y}{d x}=0 \\ ...
