Question

I have a quick question for you...

If i want to find the gradient of the following lines: Perpendicular line, normal line and tangent, what would the gradients be for each.

E.G, i think that for the tangent, the gradient is -1/m...

Please help ASAP as i have an exam tomorrow...

Thanks in advance...

Answer 1

i think you find tangent and gradient for curve rather than for lines.

Answer 2

So how would you find the gradient of the curve...

Answer 3

gradient is solve ... tangent is line.
for gradient just take dy/dx ...

Answer 4

But isn't it different for the different type of line/curve that you want to make...

Answer 5

of course it is ... the gradient depends on your curve.
the tangent depends on gradient as well as and given point.
