Apparently y/TN = dy/dx How is this?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Let b be the base length of the triangle \[dy/dx=y/b\] \[b=ydx/dy\] \[(yb)/2=tanx\] \[y^2dx/dy=2tanx\] \[dy/dx=y^2cotx/2\] See its simple

OpenStudy (lxelle):

what's b?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you see the slope of tangent is dy/dx which is equal to tanx which is again equalyto x/TN i have taken TN as b

OpenStudy (lxelle):

is b x?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no b is TN

OpenStudy (lxelle):

TN is x no?
