Question : 16
Total: 29
Find the equation of tangent to the curve x = sin 3t, y = cos 2t, at t =
Solution:
x = sin3t ⇒
= 3 cos 3t
∴x ( t =
) = sin 3 (
) =
y = cos 2t
⇒
= - 2 sin 2t
∴y ( t =
) = cos 2t = cos 2 (
) = 0
⇒
=
.
= - 2 sin 2t
= -
(
)
∴
= −

| =
Therefore, the equation of the tangent at the point(
, 0 ) is
y - 0 =
( x −
)
y =
x −
3y - 2√ 2 x + 2 = 0
∴
y = cos 2t
⇒
∴
⇒
= - 2 sin 2t
= -
∴
=
= -
Therefore, the equation of the tangent at the point
y - 0 =
y =
3y - 2
