The equation of the normal to the curve ...

The equation of the normal to the curve `y = sin x` at `(0,0)` is

A

`x=0`

B

`y=0`

C

`x+y=0`

D

`x-y=0`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
We have,
`y=sinx rArr (dy)/(dx) = cosx rArr ((dy)/(dx))_((0","0))=cos0=1`
So, the equation of the normal at (0, 0), is
`y-0=(1)/(1)(x-0) rArr y+x=0`
