To find the point on the curve \( y = (x - 2)^2 \) at which the tangent is parallel to the chord joining the points \( (2, 0) \) and \( (4, 4) \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Find the slope of the chord The slope of a line joining two points \( (x_1, y_1) \) and \( (x_2, y_2) \) is given by the formula: \[ \text{slope} = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} \] Here, we have the points \( (2, 0) \) and \( (4, 4) \). Thus: ...
