At (pi,0), y' =cos(sinx)cos(x)

hello

myininaya (myininaya):

Integrate both sides You may want to use a substitution.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im trying to find the tangent line

OpenStudy (anonymous):

equation that is

myininaya (myininaya):

Oh.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

my book has them plugging in pi for the trig functions

myininaya (myininaya):

So you are already given the general form of the slope and lines have this form y=mx+b So evaluate y' at x=pi and that is m To find the y-intercept b, you use the point (pi,0) where x=pi and y=0 and plug it into y=mx+b to find b

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes thats my problem, somehow my book is getting -1 and i am not sure how

OpenStudy (anonymous):

cos(pi) = 1

myininaya (myininaya):

cos(pi)=-1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

? how

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohhhh im thinking 90

OpenStudy (anonymous):

at 180 x = -1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

gotcha
