The equation of tangent to the curve given by
` x = 3 cos theta , y = 3 sin theta , at theta = (pi)/(4)` is

A

` x + y = sqrt(2)`

B

`3x + y = 3sqrt(2)`

C

`x + y = 3 sqrt(2)`

D

`x + 3y = 3sqrt(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Given , ` x = 3 cos theta , y = 3 sin theta `
On squaring and adding we get ` x^(2) + y^(2) = 9 ` , which
represent a circle .
` therefore ` Equation of tangent at ` theta = (pi)/(4)` is
`x.(3 cos ""(pi)/(4)) + y . (3 sin "" (pi)/(4)) = 9 rArr x + y = 3 sqrt(2)`
