The point on the curve `y^(2)=x` the tangent at which makes an angle `45^(@)` with X-axis is

A

`(1/4,1/2)`

B

`(1/2,1/4)`

C

`(1/2,-1/2)`

D

`(1/2,1/2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Given `y^(2)=x`…………i
`implies2y(dy)/(dx)=1`
`implies(dy)/(dx)=1/(2y)=` slope
Also slope `tan 45^(@)=1`
`implies1/(2y)=1impliesy=1/2`
From Eq. (i) if `y=1/2`,
then `x=1/4`
