Find the equation of tangent to the curve x = sin 3t, y = cos 2t, at t = π4\frac{\pi}{4}
Solution:  
x = sin3t ⇒ dxdt\frac{dx}{dt} = 3 cos 3t
xt=π/4x_{t=\pi/4} = sin 3 (π4)\left(\frac{\pi}{4}\right) = 12\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}
y = cos 2t
dydt\frac{dy}{dt} = - 2 sin 2t
yt=π/4y_{t=\pi/4} = cos 2t = cos 2 (π4)\left(\frac{\pi}{4}\right) = 0
dydx\frac{dy}{dx} = dydtdtdx\frac{dy}{dt} \cdot \frac{dt}{dx}
= - 2 sin 2t 13cps3t\frac{1}{3\text{cps}3t}
= - 23(sin2tcos3t)\frac{2}{3}\left(\frac{\sin 2t}{\cos 3t}\right)
dydxt=π/4\frac{dy}{dx}_{t=\pi/4} = 23sin(2×π4)cos(3×π4)-\frac{2}{3} \frac{\sin(2 \times \pi 4)}{\cos(3 \times \pi 4)}
= 23sinπ2cos3π4-\frac{2}{3} \frac{\sin\frac{\pi}{2}}{\cos\frac{3\pi}{4}}
= - 23112\frac{2}{3} \left| \frac{1}{-\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}} \right| = 223\frac{2\sqrt{2}}{3}
Therefore, the equation of the tangent at the point (12,0)\left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}, 0\right) is
y - 0 = 223(x12)\frac{2\sqrt{2}}{3} \left( x - \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \right)
y = 223x23\frac{2\sqrt{2}}{3}x - \frac{2}{3}
3y - 2 2x\sqrt{2x} + 2 = 0
